Re: program compiling LDAP

[jmong@adobe.com]

What version of Openldap are you using? My experience has been 2.1.4 
looks for db4 but anything lower such as the most recent stable release 
2.0.25 looks for 3.3.11 so change your cppflags and ldflags, 
ld_library_path to look for the 3.3.1 release. Finally try to do a find 
on db.h. I had a similar problem while building auth_ldap where it 
found multiple versions of ldap.h and got confused. finally, you 
probably have to specify some flags to your configure script. here is 
one that I've used recently with 2.1.4

./configure \
--enable-debug \
--enable-crypt \
--enable-slurpd \
--enable-syslog \
--prefix=/usr/local/openldap-2.1.4 \
--with-tls \
--with-threads=lwp \
--enable-ldbm \
--with-ldbm-api=berkeley

good luck. hope that helps.

this is building on solaris 2.7
