Error when compiling Openssh

[Darrel Louis]

Hi All,

When performing the following:

HOME=/var/tmp/
./configure \
--prefix=/opt/openssh-4.5p1 \
--sysconfdir=/etc/opt/openssh \
--with-default-path=/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/lbin:/opt/openssh/bin:/opt/sudo/bin:/admin/binsa \
--with-zlib=$HOME/zlib-1.2.3 \
--with-ssl-dir=$HOME/openssl-0.9.8d \
--with-pam

I get the following Message, any idea.

checking whether OpenSSL's PRNG is internally seeded... yes
checking for dlopen in -ldl... yes
checking for pam_set_item in -lpam... no
configure: error: *** libpam missing

Thanks
Darrel Louis

Darrel,
any additional info in config.log ?

Otherwise I would guess something like /usr/lib/libpam.a or /etc/pam.conf is missing.

[Peter Godron]

Darrel,
how are you getting on?

Does it have to be this version? Otherwise the binaries depots are available at:
http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Networking/Admin/openssh-4.4p1/

Sorry for the late response:
The file /usr/lib/libpam.a is missing on my machine. I only have libpam.1 and libpam.sl

Peter,

I've tried version openssh-4.4p1, but resulted in the same problem.
