[S.u.S.E. Linux] compiling pppd / shadow suite
I'm trying to recompile pppd. I want to apply a patch to it, but before I do I wanted to make sure it compiles properly BEFORE I make the patch. The version on suse is ppp-2.2.0f . The docs for this say the following... 5a. Support for shadow passwords To compile the pppd process with support for shadow passwords you must first have compiled the shadow password suite and have it installed into the /usr/include and /usr/lib directories. Rather than using the simple make command mentioned above, issue the command: make HAS_SHADOW=1 So, I installed the sources for the shadow suite and installed it, but the compile of pppd doesn't go, I get this error. auth.c:54: shadow/pwauth.h: No such file or directory make[1]: *** [auth.o] Error 1 I can make this error go away by "fixing" auth.c to point to where pwauth.h is, but then I run into another problem, the linker ld complains about lshadow. I don't think the shadow suite is being installed correctly. Is there something I need to do different for suse 5.1 ? Btw, a simple make works ok, but then I don't have support for shadow in my pppd. -- Lou A.
