in thread Filesys::SmbClient can't find libsmbclient.so on OS X

I'm sorry but you really don't seem to have read my original post.

You suggest I should install samba with MacPorts. I've already done that.

You suggest I should download Samba from samba.org and I've already mentioned the problem with that.

    "find" on my system (10.9.5) shows a couple of dynamic libraries that are part of an SDK. If you have developer tools installed you might have some version or other:

    /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk/usr/lib/samba/libsmbclient.dylib
/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk/usr/lib/samba/libsmbsharemodes.dylib

    [download]

    you may or may not be able to link to them by editing the Makefile.pl

    Let me try again ... what files got installed when you installed samba with MacPorts? List the files please

    Then, instead of trying to link to libsmbclient ... link to something else ... edit Makefile.PL to accomplish this

    You suggest I should download Samba from samba.org and I've already mentioned the problem with that.

    You mean when I go to samba.org it just says that OS X already has Samba installed. There don't appear to be binaries for OS X any more. ??

    I did mention that you install from source, didn't I? When installing from source, its not going to tell you "you already have samba" because sources don't care if you already have something installed
