Hi,

I would like to use Solaris 10 as a NAS server for our office - taking advantage of the goodness of ZFS to manage mirrored storage.

I'm new to Solaris having spent most of my time on FreeBSD and Linux. I have managed to get it installed OK, patched up-to-date with smpatch, set up a two-disk ZFS mirror and enabled CIFS file sharing. The problem I have is that there are a lot of Mac users in my company and they prefer using Apple's native filesharing. This means installing netatalk.

I couldn't find any packages for netatalk, so I found these intructions and tried to follow them:

http://www.unixzone.dk/unix/20060122/appletalk-on-solaris

I installed GCC and berkeleydb44_devel using blastwave but I can't get netatalk to compile either the vanilla version or the patched version from the link above - it configures OK with:

RANLIB=echo CC=gcc LDFLAGS=-R/opt/csw/bdb44/lib ./configure --prefix=/opt/netatalk --with-ssl=/usr/sfw --with-bdb=/opt/csw/bdb44

but the gmake fails with:

cnid_index.c:277: warning passing argument 2 of 'db->stat' from incompatible pointer type
cnid_index.c:277: error: too few arguments to function 'db->stat'

Is there an easier way of doing this (a pre-built package would be great!), or can anyone point me in the right direction to get it working please?

Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask these questions.


Many thanks,

Matt.

 

 

Try using gmake from sunfreeware

http://www.sunfreeware.com/programlistsparc10.html#make

Cheers,
Andreas

 

 

Thanks, Andreas.

It still breaks at the same place with gmake from sunfreeware. :-(

 

 

Try the mailing lists:

http://netatalk.sourceforge.net/mailing_lists.php

There's usually one for Developers so start there. If not, ususally in the tarball is a file called MAINTAINERS with names and e-mail addresses for you to use.

I supose that you downloaded Berkely DB from Oracle site http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/berkeley-db/index.html

Please look carefuly what I have done below.

My first try was to install nettalk w/o Berkely DB installed:

# cd netatalk-2.0.3

Make sure you have the required Berkeley DB libraries AND headers installed.
You can download the latest version from http://www.sleepycat.com.
If you have installed BDB in a non standard location use the
--with-bdb=/path/to/bdb configure option and make sure
your linker is configured to check for libraries there.

The netatalk software was designed to work with an older version of berkelely db (4.2)
The api for db has changed slightly in the meantime

Hi guys,

This looks encouraging. I will try it out as soon as I am done with some other stuff I have to do first.

Many thanks for your help,

Matt.

 

 

Thanks, Robert. This worked for me.

 

 

Hello.
I'm trying to compile netatalk-2.0.3 with BerkeleyDB.4.7. I applied the patch that Robert mentioned but I'm getting the following error:

then mv -f ".deps/main.Tpo" ".deps/main.Po"; \
else rm -f ".deps/main.Tpo"; exit 1; \

There are 6 programs that throw this error:
./etc/atalkd/main.c
./etc/cnid_dbd/dbif.c
./etc/papd/main.c
./etc/papd/lp.c
./bin/cnid/cnid_index.c
./sys/solaris/tpi.c

Make a backup of each file and then edit each. Near the top of each file, you will find a section that looks like:

#if defined( sun ) && defined( __svr4__ )
#include </usr/ucbinclude/sys/file.h>
#else /* sun __svr4__ */*
*#include <sys/file.h>*
*#endif /* sun __svr4__ */

And add '!' to make it become:

#if defined( sun ) && ! defined( __svr4__ )
#include </usr/ucbinclude/sys/file.h>
#else /* sun __svr4__ */*
*#include <sys/file.h>*
*#endif /* sun __svr4__ */

So, the steps to build 'netatalk' on OpenSolaris (probably Solaris 10 as well) from scratch would be:

0) If you have installed from the OpenSolaris Live CD, then you are missing the development software. Install 'gcc'

pkg install gcc-dev
 
[other optional packages]
pkg install ss-dev         <-- SunStudio developers suite
pkg install amp-dev      <-- Apache, MySql, PHP/Perl/Python

1) Install 'pkg-get' from Blastwave

cd /opt
wget http://www.blastwave.org/pkg_get.pkg
pkgadd -d./pkg_get.pkg
export PATH=$PATH":/opt/csw/bin"

2) Install the Berkeley DB from Blastwave

pkg-get -i gpgme
pkg-get -i berkeleydb44 berkeleydb44_devel

3) Download and unpack the source code for 'netatalk' from [Sourceforge|http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=8642|netatalk from Sourceforge]

4) Backup/modify the various sources that need to be fixed in order to compile, as previously documented in this disccusion thread.

5) I use the following script, 'BUILD', to configure the Makefile

#!/bin/sh -
 
PATH="/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/opt/csw/bin"
CC=/usr/bin/gcc
LDFLAGS="-Wl,-R /opt/csw/bdb44/lib -Wl,-R /usr/sfw/lib"
 
export PATH CC LDFLAGS
 
./configure    --prefix=/opt/csw                      \
                   --with-bdb=/opt/csw/bdb44          \
                   --with-libiconv=/opt/csw           \
                   --with-pam=/usr/lib/security       \
                   --with-shadow                      \
                   --with-ssl-dir=/usr/sfw

6) Compile with 'make' and install with 'make install | tee install.log'
