Here are my findings.. ran configure with : ./configure --without-authinfo-ldap --without-authinfo-radius in libproff/Makefile remove all intances of lists_test In src/Makefile, tried with and without -lpam support.. I continually get stuck with the error below.. despite the --without-pam flags, src/Makefile still tries to compile with authinfo_pam.c I have also noticed that irrespective of the flags used to run configure, the contents of nntpcached_SOURCES in src/Makefile remain the same. I believe these pam related enteries are causing the problems. I have even tried to compile with all authinfo turned off, same problem.. If anyone has any idea what I'm missing please pilot me. gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I../cf -I../common -I../libprof f -I../libconfused -I../mmap -I../libmmalloc -I../lib dbz -g -O2 -Wall -pipe -c authinfo_pam.c authinfo_pam.c:28: `pam_got_pass' undeclared here (not in a function) authinfo_pam.c:28: initializer element for `pam_authenticator.authinfo_pass' is not constant authinfo_pam.c: In function `pam_got_pass': authinfo_pam.c:88: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type make: *** [authinfo_pam.o] Error 1 Megatons of thanks, Dotun ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joel Billiotte" <Joel.Billiotte@cgi.ensmp.fr> To: <nntpcache-users@suburbia.net> Cc: <nntpcache-users@suburbia.net> Sent: Thursday, March 08, 2001 12:53 PM Subject: NNTPC: compile nntpcache 2.4.0b5 error on Sol 2.6 > > Date sent: Thu, 08 Mar 2001 10:31:01 -0500 > From: dotun@tgnt.net > Copies to: tschweikle@FIDUCIA.de > To: nntpcache-users@suburbia.net > Forwarded by: nntpcache-users@suburbia.net > Subject: NNTPC: compile nntpcache 2.4.0b5 error on Sol 2.6 > Date forwarded: Fri, 9 Mar 2001 02:35:47 +1100 (EST) > > > Thomas Wrote in his > > > > >authinfo_pam.c:26: `pam_got_pass' undeclared here (not in a function)= > > >authinfo_pam.c:26: initializer element is not constant > > >authinfo_pam.c:26: (near initialization for `pam_authenticator.authin= > > fo_pass') > > >make[2]: *** [authinfo_pam.o] Error 1 > > >make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/xch4008/cvs/nntpcache-2.4.0b5/src' > > >make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 > > > make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/xch4008/cvs/nntpcache-2.4.0b5' > > .make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 > > > > > You can try > make clean > ./configure --without-authinfo-ldap > make > Best regards > > > > I'm having the same problems and hope someone can point me in the right direction..
