Hi Everyone, inet_ntop and inet_pton were not being detected properly on modern on Solaris. This patch revisits the the socket gear configuration on SunOS and brings it up to date for Solaris 11. According to configure.ac, the three or four functions of interest include hstrerror, inet_ntop and inet_pton. The libraries of interest are -lresolv -lsocket -lnsl. The configure tests now look for inet_ntop and inet_pton in -lsocket -lnsl per the man page. If not found, the configure tests fall back to existing behavior by searching in -lresolv. And if not found in -lresolv, then NO_INET_NTOP and NO_INET_PTON are set. Here's the configure fly-by: checking for socket... no checking for library containing socket... no checking for inet_ntop... no checking for library containing inet_ntop... -lnsl checking for inet_pton... yes checking for hstrerror... no checking for library containing hstrerror... -lresolv And config.status: $ /usr/gnu/bin/grep -E 'RESOLV|SOCKET|NSL' config.status NEEDS_RESOLV=YesPlease NEEDS_SOCKET=YesPlease NEEDS_NSL=YesPlease Jeff
