I'm getting error messages when trying to compile vsftpd version 3.0.2 on AIX 6.1 (trying to compile VSFTPD with SSL):

SRVR#:/opt/freeware/src/packages/SOURCES/vsftpd-3.0.2> make

Stop

Thanks in advance.

I'm not an AIX user, so I can't say AIX does or does not support relro, but I would suggest removing it from your Makefile. You'd likely get a working binary if you left out -Wl,-z,relro -Wl,-z,now

Hello, I am getting the same error when I tried to compile the code.

         gcc -o vsftpd main.o utility.o prelogin.o ftpcmdio.o postlogin.o privsock.o  tunables.o ftpdataio.o secbuf.o ls.o  postprivparent.o logging.o str.o netstr.o sysstr.o strlist.o  
banner.o filestr.o parseconf.o secutil.o  ascii.o oneprocess.o twoprocess.o privops.o standalone.o hash.o  tcpwrap.o ipaddrparse.o access.o features.o readwrite.o opts.o  ssl.o 
sslslave.o ptracesandbox.o ftppolicy.o sysutil.o sysdeputil.o  seccompsandbox.o -Wl,-s -fPIE -pie -Wl,-z,relro -Wl,-z,now `./vsf_findlibs.sh`
ld: 0706-005 Cannot find or open file: relro
        ld open(): A file or directory in the path name does not exist.
ld: 0706-005 Cannot find or open file: now
        ld open(): A file or directory in the path name does not exist.
collect2: error: ld returned 255 exit status
make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 1.

I am really stuck now. Can someone please help ?

I am hoping someone can compile vsftpd with SSL turned ON and share it with .RPM.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
