(Answer) (Category) OpenLDAP Faq-O-Matic : (Category) OpenLDAP Developer's FAQ : (Category) Porting OpenLDAP : (Answer) Porting to new (unix-like) platforms
1) obtain a current copy of OpenLDAP-devel!
   see: http://www.openldap.org/software/repo.html

2) run ./build/config.guess
It should print the canonical name for your platform. If it doesn't support your platform, edit config.guess as needed. You may also have to modify config.sub.

You may skip this step for now by replacing the scripts with simple versions that echo an appropriate canonical name. However, for your port fully, config.guess/.sub MUST support your platform.

You should submit config.guess/config.sub changes to the Autoconf mailing list:

  autoconf@gnu.org

2) try ./configure ... it just may work
3) If not, hack away.
