Hello,I've been building stunnel 4.52 on Solaris 10 SPARC zone. Configure and make went fine, make install failed in tools with error if uname | grep SunOS; then \ ../auto/install-sh -c -d -m 755 /tmp/stunnel/var/lib/stunnel/dev; \ mknod /tmp/stunnel/var/lib/stunnel/dev/zero c 13 12; \ chmod 666 /tmp/stunnel/var/lib/stunnel/dev/zero; \ fi SunOS mknod: Not owner -- mknod is not allowed in solaris zone, only in global. One of many notices of this error skayser's http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg03031.html asks if mknod is needed on solaris 10. So I tried after configure comment out the mknod section in tools/Makefile. -- install-data-local: ... ... if uname | grep SunOS; then \ ${INSTALL} -d -m 755 $(DESTDIR)$(localstatedir)/lib/stunnel/dev; \ mknod $(DESTDIR)$(localstatedir)/lib/stunnel/dev/zero c 13 12; \ chmod 666 $(DESTDIR)$(localstatedir)/lib/stunnel/dev/zero; \ fi -- Now make install ends OK and stunnel works fine (I use it as client only).

Isn't creating ./dev/zero not needed anymore?
