Yeah, I actually went through and added the appropriate syntax to each
of the macro's which has gotte rid of warnings when running 'aclocal'.
When I run 'make' after running './configure --enable-ldap' I do not see
anything specifying the '-lldap' linking.

You were right, I added it to the configure.in and it is now

help is appreciated.
No need to apologise -- we all had to learn, at some time.
When you run `make', what do you see, to indicate that it isn't
linking? Does it complain "file not found", (or similar), for
the libldap.a, or is it "unresolved symbol", for something you
expect from that library? For the "file not found" case, perhaps
you need to add a `-L /path/to/lpad/lib_dir' to the LDFLAGS, so
the linker can find it.
BTW...
LIBS="-lldap $ac_save__LIBS"
why $ac_save__LIBS? Normally, you would just say
LIBS="-lldap $LIBS"
Also, it's considered poor style to omit the quoting in macro
calls, such as
AC_CHECK_HEADER(ldap.h, :, AC_MSG_ERROR(message string...))
Rather say
AC_CHECK_HEADER([ldap.h],
[],
[AC_MSG_ERROR([message string...])])
(you normally just leave the ACTION_IF_FOUND field blank, if you
don't want anything there).
If you get into the habit of quoting "correctly", even when it
appears unnecessary, you are less likely to get it wrong, when it
does matter.
Regards,
Keith.
