Have you checked config.log? Maybe the order of the checks is important. I've been using the following for ages, and it continues to work on Solaris 9: AC_CHECK_FUNCS(gethostbyname,,[AC_CHECK_LIB(nsl,gethostbyname,,[AC_CHECK_LIB(socket,gethostbyname)])]) AC_CHECK_FUNCS(setsockopt,,[AC_CHECK_LIB(socket,setsockopt)])
