RE: Solaris compile

["Neil McBennett" <Neil.McBennett [at] sportingbet.com>]

Hi Jason,

We have Solaris and Linux boxes here and I wanted to implement a solution that was common to both if possible. I have used the native LDAP client in Solaris before but I seem to recall that ldap cache manager didn’t keep a connection open, but did a new ldap bind each time (I may be wrong!).

Hi Neil,

 

I apologize if you've answered this already. Why are you preferring nslcd to the built in Solaris LDAP client?

Thanks Arthur,
I did manage to compile everything from the 0.8.5 code. Observations so
far as follows:
1. nscd doesn't work and this is a known issue. nscd seems to be tightly
integrated with Solaris' ldap cache manager, which is part of the native
ldap client. Does anyone already use nss-pam-ldapd on Solaris? If so are
you finding it a problem having nscd turned off?

2. I run truss on "ps" command and see the following...

# truss ps -ef 2>&1| grep ldap
stat("/lib/64/nss_ldap.so.1", 0xFFFFFFFF7FFFE200) Err#2 ENOENT
stat("/usr/lib/64/nss_ldap.so.1", 0xFFFFFFFF7FFFE200) = 0
resolvepath("/usr/lib/64/nss_ldap.so.1",
"/usr/lib/sparcv9/nss_ldap.so.1", 1023) = 30
open("/usr/lib/64/nss_ldap.so.1", O_RDONLY) = 4
stat("/lib/64/libsldap.so.1", 0xFFFFFFFF7FFFDEF0) Err#2 ENOENT
stat("/usr/lib/64/libsldap.so.1", 0xFFFFFFFF7FFFDEF0) = 0
resolvepath("/usr/lib/64/libsldap.so.1",
"/usr/lib/sparcv9/libsldap.so.1", 1023) = 30
open("/usr/lib/64/libsldap.so.1", O_RDONLY) = 4
open("/var/run/ldap_cache_door", O_RDONLY) Err#2 ENOENT
open("/var/run/ldap_cache_door", O_RDONLY) Err#2 ENOENT
open("/var/run/ldap_cache_door", O_RDONLY) Err#2 ENOENT
open("/var/run/ldap_cache_door", O_RDONLY) Err#2 ENOENT

Looks like certain utilities use 64 bit libraries so I will need to
compile 32 and 64 bit binaries.
