Pammkdir package installation on HP-UX 11.11

[Spyros_]

Dear all,

I am trying to install the PAM_mkhomedir package on HP-UX 11.11 for our LDAP implementation. The problem is that on HP-UX 11.11 the latest Internet Express version is A.10.00 and it is available only on the OE/AR media kit 0803, and not available on HP Software Site as depot.

I found the folder with the source code and I was tried to complile the packages with the following commands that I found in README file. 

# cd /opt/iexpress/pammkdir/src
# cc pam_mkdir.c -o pam_mkdir.o -D_HPUX_SOURCE -c +z +DAportable
# ld -b +nodefaultrpath -L/usr/lib -lc -o libpam_mkdir.1 pam_mkdir.o
# chmod 555 libpam_mkdir.1
# cp libpam_mkdir.1 /usr/lib/security/

The error that I was get is follwing:
cc: 487: warning : Possibly incorrect message catalog.
cc: 485: warning pam_mkdir.c: Can't open "".
cc: 485: No such file or directory [errno=2]

I know that there is no file with that name inside the /opt/iexpress/pammkdir/src but I just follow the instructions.

Please, can you help me to install this package? Or please inform where I can get the depot file.

Kind regards,

Spyros

Looks like you compiler installation is broken and message catalog it missing?

>I know that there is no file with that name inside the /opt/iexpress/pammkdir/src

So what IS there?

Hello Dennis,

Inside the specific path there are the following:

ls -la /opt/iexpress/pammkdir/src
total 32
drwxr-xr-x 3 bin bin 96 Jun 1 16:00 .
drwxr-xr-x 4 bin bin 8192 Jun 1 15:46 ..

Looks like it is nested deeper.

Hello Dennis,

I was tried to upload a zip with the Pammkdir's folder but the community deletes those kinds of attachments.

I don't know where is the problem and furthermore, I can not understand why HP have deleted the iexpress depot from their site.

Hello all,

Finally, I found a workaround about my problem.

I found an iso that inside there is the specific package for 11.11. I had mounted it and the package now is installed successfully.

Kind regards,

Spyros
