in reply to Can't load perl module Filesys::SmbClient

Hi, your code should go inside <code></code> tags. Didn't you see that it's not rendered sanely? Please edit and fix your post.

When you get an error complaining about failure to load a library ending in .so, it's usually because your system is missing a required C library that must be compiled and linked to by your desired Perl module.

Have you followed the documentation for Filesys::SmbClient? As in:


The way forward always starts with a minimal test.

** I Can't find libsmbclient.so : No such file or directory.

If you don't have this file you can download last version
of Samba on www.samba.org and do:

$ tar zxvf samba-2.2.x.tar.gz
$ cd samba-2.2.x/source
$ ./configure
$ make bin/libsmbclient.so

Then you can find libsmbclient.h in source/include directory and
libsmbclient.so in source/bin directory. You can then put them in
/usr/include and /usr/lib (or /usr/local/include and
/usr/local/lib)

Good you have SMBCTXX->flags
You use SMBCTXX->close_fn (release >= 3.0.20).
