Shibboleth Developers

[Tristan Waddington <>]

Hey all, for the past week or so I've been trying to build
Shibboleth-2.1 on our FreeBSD box. I realize it's not officially
supported, but I figured it should be possible.

I've been able to get all the dependencies to compile (after some
struggling), but now I'm running into a compile error with Shibboleth.

Here's what I'm seeing:

remoting/impl/TCPListener.cpp: In member function 'void
shibsp::TCPListener::setup_tcp_sockaddr(shibsp::sockaddr_in*) const':

You can see the config.log here:

I have some programming experience, but almost none in C++, so I'm
having a hell of a time trying to figure out what's wrong. I did some
poking around and am wondering if there is a problem with conflicting
namespaces or an improperly included file, but I'm really not sure.

I was hoping one of you might be able to point me in the right direction.

If all else fails I'll try installing the Shibboleth-2.1 RPM in Linux
compatibility mode, but I'm so close to getting this compiled and
installed that I'd really like to just get it working.

Thanks!
