There are several problems related to building and running adminutil on Solaris.

You don't need to include a dummy C++ source file in order to force libtool to use CXXLINK. The proper way to deal with this problem is to set "target_LINK = $(CXXLINK)" in Makefile.am. This forces it to use the C++ linked for building a particular target, even if all the source files that make up that target are pure C code.
Please disregard my previous comment. I just noticed that the problem is that CXXLINK is not defined at all if no C++ source files are listed in Makefile.am.

Files: see diff - new file dummy.cpp Branch: HEAD Fix Description: There are several problems with building/running adminutil on Solaris. The biggest is that ICU introduces a dependency on C++. Solaris requires linking with the C++ libraries and that also requires using C++ to link as well. This means using the CXXLINK macro. However, automake will only generate this macro if it detects a C++ source file in Makefile.am. So, we have to introduce a dummy.cpp file to force automake to generate the CXXLINK macro, then use that to link the shared libraries. Accept automake version 1.10 or later. Look for mozldap6 first, then mozldap. Platforms tested: Solaris 9 64bit Flag Day: Yes - autotool file changes

We have been successfully building and using adminutil on Solaris for some time now. Marking as verified.
