  • 1.  Error running Samba 4.10.13 on AIX 6.1 installed from AIX Toolbox

    Posted Fri February 11, 2022 07:56 AM
    Hello,

    I installed Samba 4.10.13 with yum from  AIX Toolbox on AIX 6.1TL9
    All samba rpms installed successfully but I got an error when running smbd and nmbd.

    # ./smbd start
    Starting Samba smbd daemon... Could not load program /opt/freeware/sbin/smbd:
    rtld: 0712-001 Symbol dirfd was referenced
    from module /opt/freeware/lib/samba/libreplace-samba4.so(), but a runtime definition
    of the symbol was not found.
    done.

    Does anyone have an idea or has encountered this issue ?

    Regards,

    There is a problem with this Samba 4.10.13-2 build for AIX 6.1. ( It works in AIX 7.1 & above )
    You can try the earlier build which is 4.10.13-1. It's the same version. Only difference is, it is built with older popt (so you may need to downgrade popt to 1.16)

    Also note , we stopped building Samba for AIX 6.1 for quiet sometime as the higher versions of Samba requires OS functionalities not available in AIX 6.1

    OK i confirmed, i installed samba rpm 4.10.13-1 and downgraded popt to 1.16 and Samba 4.10.13 is now running successfully on AIX 6.1TL9.
    Thanks for your help.
