Ok, I got the whole tree to build! Now to test! I had to add one more symbol to an .sym file, fix one of the Makefiles for AIX, and I manually edited one of the generated Makefiles to append -lk5crypto to the kerberos libs.
One thing I noticed, it seems that the rc files for AIX in src/afsd are not installed, and are only referenced in the "make dest" target. Furthermore, they seem to be hard-coded to expect Transarc-style paths. Did anyone build for AIX using openafs-style paths? Thanks. -Ben ________________________________ From: Jeffrey E Altman Sent: Monday, August 15, 2022 5:49 AM To: Ben Huntsman; Daria Phoebe Brashear Cc: Benjamin Kaduk; Ken Hornstein; openafs-devel@openafs.org Subject: Re: [OpenAFS-devel] AIX build fails with missing symbol .krb5_c_make_random_key On 8/15/2022 2:25 AM, Ben Huntsman (b...@huntsmans.net<mailto:b...@huntsmans.net>) wrote: Hi there! Ah, that makes some sense. So presumably there hasn't ever been a successful build on AIX 6.1 using kerberos. Is it practical to try to build without it? AIX was built with Kerberos 5. As I said, it was known to work for AIX 6.1 TL5 and OpenAFS 1.6.5. Somewhere between AIX 6.1 TL5 and TL8 the kernel module stopped functioning properly and no one ever had the combination of desire, skills, knowledge and access to AIX systems to figure out why. The build failures you are experiencing could be for several reasons: * The wrong libraries are being used because of 32-bit vs 64-bit. * How many versions of krb5-config are there? Are there two, one for 32-bit and the other for 64-bit? * Perhaps krb5_c_make_random_key isn't in the export list for AIX? * Other broken behavior in the configure tests related to AIX.
