Dear Friends,

It tried by adding ggrep path in PATH variable as first path even  though I
am getting same error message.

My doubt is that gmake command calls a script which uses grep however gun
grep in solaris is ggrep.

I am able to successfully compile 2.2.9. (after trying and failed with
3.0.9) in the same environment. I have faced only error while compiling
rlm_unix module, as per Alan's reply for one of old thread, I removed
rlm_unix and successfully installed 2.2.9 in the environment.

I am facing difficulty only with 3.0.9 on Solaris 11.

1) While configure step, I faced below WARNINGS. hope I can ignore those.

checking for redisConnect in -lhiredis... no
checking for redisConnect in -lhiredis in /usr/local/lib... no
checking for redisConnect in -lhiredis in /opt/lib... no
configure: WARNING: hiredis libraries not found. Use
--with-redis-lib-dir=<path>.
configure: WARNING: silently not building rlm_rediswho.
configure: WARNING: FAILURE: rlm_rediswho requires: hiredis.h libhiredis.

2) while doing gmake I faced following errors. GNU grep on solaris is
ggrep, since script is using "grep" though I added GNU utilities path
(/usr/sfw/bin) as first in the PATH variable, it is not able to make use
since name is ggrep. I believe that if I create symbolic link as grep to
ggrep in the path /usr/sfw/bin then It may resolve. Please correct me on
the same.
