Hello, i'm trying to compile mod_ntlm into Apache2.2.13 on AIX 6.1 but i'm confused as the apxs utility doesn't create .so file but instead i get .a and .la files, these are in the Apache modules directory as well. Apache is compiled with following options:

./configure --enable-so --enable-cgi --with-included-apr

When i try to create the module it always fails on not being able to find the .so module:

Anyone has similar problem? Or anyone can explain to me the difference between creating .so and .a/.la files?

ok, i found that mod_ntlm is obsolete so now i'm trying to compile the mm_mod_auth_ldap3.11 on the same environment but during compilation i get following error:

***Creating module** mod_auth_ldap v3.11

and during the configure process:

checking whether the gcc linker (/usr/bin/ld) supports shared libraries... no checking dynamic linker characteristics... no checking how to hardcode library paths into programs... immediate checking whether stripping libraries is possible... no checking 

if libtool supports shared libraries... no checking whether to build shared libraries... no checking whether to build 

static libraries... yes

and this messages i get even if i specify LDFLAGS to -Wl,-G which should tell the libtool to link dynamic shared object... anyone has similar trouble?

Just a small update on this topic, on AIX 5.3 it works as it should, tried the same compliation:

checking whether the gcc linker (/usr/bin/ld) supports shared libraries... yes checking dynamic linker characteristics... aix5.3.0.0 ld.so checking how to hardcode library paths into programs... immediate checking whether stripping libraries is possible... no checking 

if libtool supports shared libraries... yes checking whether to build shared libraries... yes checking whether to build 

static libraries... yes

Or if it doesn't work as IBM pages tend to stop working from time to time, you can find the solution here http://alexkernel.bloguje.cz/825451-compiling-shared-objects-in-aix-6-1.php
