compiling openssh-4.0p1 under AIX 5.2

[markus38]

Trying to compile openssh-4.0p1 on AIX.
configure fails with the following?
Any ideas?

checking for socklen_t equivalent... configure: error: Cannot find a type to use in place of socklen_t

It does not like the version of libc.
I recommend downloading the rpm from IBM freeware or Bull

Ok,

Did so, but not sure how to get configure to use them...

glib-1.2.10-2
libgcc-3.3.2-5
zlib-1.2.1-2
libstdc++-3.3.2-5
libstdc++-devel-3.3.2-5

Please advise?
Mark

Check this guide :

Includes installing from RPM as well as compiling from source.
