Samba startup error

[gringomike]

I have installed various versions of Samba (most recently the precompiles version from bullfreeware) but i keep getting the same error.

/usr/local/samba/sbin/smbd smbd –D

exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program /usr/local/samba/sbin/smbd because of the following errors:
0509-150 Dependent module libldap.a(libldap.so.2) could not be
loaded.
0509-022 Cannot load module libldap.a(libldap.so.2).
0509-026 System error: A file or directory in the path name does not
exist.

The server is running AIX 5.1.

Does anyone know why this is happening or, more importantly, how to resolve it?

I’ve installed libiconv-1.9.1.0.bff from the bullfreeware site but this has made no difference to the problem.

Thanks for your help!

Try installing OpenLDAP from the 5.1 Expansion Pack (or it could be on the AIX Toolkit - can't remember off hand)

I gave up on the pre-compiled bff's from Bull & UCLA.
Compiling the source with gcc works well for me.
(At least then I can also install to /opt instead files being all over /usr)
