Installing Netatalk on OpenIndiana

Install Netatalk

The unofficial OpenCSW package repository for Solaris and Solaris-likes distributes a netatalk binary package that can be installed through their package manager.

For building and installing from source yourself, for instance to get a newer version, follow the guides linked here.

• Installation Quick Start

Install on OpenIndiana

This article describes how to install Netatalk 3.1 on OpenIndiana Hipster using the legacy Autotools build system.

Update system and install compiler toolchain

$ sudo pfexec pkg image-update
$ sudo pkg install build-essential crackle

Build and install libtalloc

$ wget https://www.samba.org/ftp/talloc/talloc-2.4.1.tar.gz
$ tar xvzf talloc-2.4.1.tar.gz
$ cd talloc-2.4.1
$ ./configure CC=gcc
$ make
$ sudo make install

Build

Extract a tarball.

$ tar xvf netatalk-3.1.8.tar.bz2
$ cd netatalk-3.1.8

You should read the help message, in order to know configure options.

If the applicable libraries are installed, many options will be detected automatically.

$ ./configure --help

Do configure! The following options are not auto-detected.

$ ./configure \
   PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig \
   CFLAGS=-I/usr/include/gssapi \
   --with-init-style=solaris \
   --enable-krbV-uam \
   --with-dbus-sysconf-dir=/etc/dbus-1/system.d \
   --with-pam-confdir=/etc/pam.d \
   --with-tracker-pkgconfig-version=1.0 \
   --with-cracklib

On successful completion, you will see a report similar to the following:
