Building Kerberos on AIX

[Mohit Aggrawal]

Hello Greg,

The correct symbol is krb5int_setpw_result_code_string . I am able to  get
pass the symbol error.
Now i am facing  issue in building the db2 library i.e.
krb5-1.9.5/src/plugins/kdb/db2 .
The linker is trying to locate the "db"  library but it is not present in
the path -L../../../lib.
Do i need separately build the library ???or i am missing something ?
I am building it on AIX platform

bash-2.05b$
bash-2.05b$ uname -a
AIX xblade-a 2 5 0001AFD9D000
bash-2.05b$


the out put  is given as
