I managed to update the system ldap librairies to 2.2.9, but I cannot update them beyond that becuase of the dependency from nss_ldap.

Long-story short, the only source of nss_ldap I can get to even run make on is that included in the freebsd ports collection (cvsup'd this afternoon), which is nss_ldap-1.239, the most current code beying 243. I'm gonna bounce a few emails back and forth with nss_ldap developers, but it gave me a good question about samba and it's dependancy upon ldap librairies.

Can samba (preferably via ./configure script) have the location to which it seeks the ldap librairies over-ridden? As-in with nss_ldap, I can specify --with-openldap=/openldap/installed/somewhere/else/ and it seeks lib/libldap*.so and include/ldap.h from their. Reason being I have compiled openldap 2.3.11 using --prefix=/usr/openldap23, I have configured and imported my ldap tree and am now using slapd-2.3.11 from this installation, but the system (/usr/local) librairies for ldap are still 2.2.9.

So is there an easy way to point samba towards compiling itself to use a different openldap distribution, or would this be something one might accomplish at run-time?

In the meantime, I'll continue to run using openldap-2.2.9 and see if the issue persists.

Looks like the OpenLDAP client libs are stuck in a select()
call.  What version of OL are you using?  Is there a newer version you
could try?
