But at this point, it is something that I would try anyway. Add: extension=sockets.so in your php.ini file just to see if it brings the function to light. Your Linux installs I am sure were compiled with it in it. Especially if it is a dist package. The absence of the function is telling me that PHP is not compiled with --enable-sockets. If it was compiled in properly, you would be getting different errors. I am not saying that you didn't do it. Something may have happened in the process. By adding the sockets.so, you are adding the extension dynamically, incase you were mistaken by the compile or incase there was some sort of anomaly that the rest of PHP compiled but the sockets section was botched. Solaris is (I guess) known to be lacking when it comes to C compilers (at least according to the Unix geeks that I sit next to at work). But it seems to me that it would all have failed or it would have all worked.
