>From: "Anderson, Alan C. " <address@hidden> >Organization: St. Cloud State >Keywords: 200402061721.i16HLLp1027829 LDM configure install Hi Alan, I got both your first and second emails, so this reply reflects my having looked at the attached log files in the second. >I am starting on a build of ldm 6.0.14 on a Sun terminal with >Solaris v. 9 , sparc. >From my config.log and configure.log files (attached) it looks like >most things are ok, but there is a problem with something called >conftest. >Also, can you clarify whether I need to set the variable LIBS as listed >in the SourceCode Installation ( pg. 2/4) You should _not_ have to set this. >I do not have it set at this >point but am not sure about whether librpcsoc is being found. configure uses defaults for where libraries should be located. In your configure run, it chose: checking RPC and socket references... -R/usr/ucblib -L/usr/ucblib -lrpcsoc -lnsl -lsocket If /usr/ucblib/librpcsoc is on your system -- and it should be --, then you should be set to run make. For comparison, I checked our Sun Solaris v. 9 SPARC machine, and see that librpcsoc.so is located in /usr/ucblib: % ls /usr/ucblib/librpc* /usr/ucblib/librpcsoc.so.1* /usr/ucblib/librpcsoc.so@ So, at this point you should be able to finish the LDM build and installation: <as 'ldm'> cd ~ldm/ldm-6.0.14/src make make install And, if this completes with no errors: su (not su -) make install_setuids exit After this, it is time to make the LDM runtime links: <still as 'ldm'> cd ~ldm ln -s ldm-6.0.14 runtime ln -s runtime/bin bin ln -s runtime/include include ln -s runtime/lib lib ln -s runtime/man man ln -s runtime/src src Setup your ldmd.conf and pqact.conf files to include the request lines, allow lines, and processing actions probably exactly the way you have things setup on waldo. >Thanks for your help No worries.
