building static library libpam

[Sudarshan Soma]

Thank you so much. Now iam able to cross compile successfully with the
below options and test it.


./configure  CC=/opt/ELDK41/usr/bin/ppc_6xx-gcc --disable-selinux
--host=ppc-linux-gnu -target=ppc-linux-gnu --build=i686-linux-gnu
LD=/opt/ELDK41/usr/bin/ppc_6xx-ld
CFLAGS="-I/opt/ELDK41/ppc_6xx/usr/include/security/"
LDFLAGS="-I/opt/ELDK41/ppc_6xx/usr/include/security/
-L/opt/ELDK41/ppc_6xx/usr/lib/"


I am resolving few other issues:

-- libpath with -L doesnt go while compiling pam_crack.so which still
takes /usr/lib/ for libcrack.so
--  when i try to dynamic link libpam to applciation, it doesnt link
properly and gives the error

"opt/ELDK41/usr/bin/ppc_6xx-ld: warning: cannot find entry symbol
_start; defaulting to 10000374"
for
/opt/ELDK41/usr/bin/ppc_6xx-ld  pamappl.o -M -Map testmap.map --cref
/opt/ELDK41/ppc_6xx/lib/libc.so /opt/ELDK41/ppc_6xx/lib/libdl.so
/root/workdoc/security/origlinuxpam/Linux-PAM-1.0.3/libpam/.libs/libpam.so
 /root/workdoc/security/origlinuxpam/Linux-PAM-1.0.3/libpam_misc/.libs/libpam_misc.so


Iam working on these, incase you have any comments/ suggestions,
please let me know

Thanks
Pavan
