Thank you. I thought "103400" meant v1.03.4 but it seems you are right, 
it obviously means v1.34.

So, I installed (from the EPEL repo) packages boost141 and 
boost141-devel and compilation went better, but it still stops later:

# CXXFLAGS=-I/usr/include/boost141 ./configure --with-modules="gmysql ldap"
...
checking for Boost headers version >= 103400... yes
checking for Boost's header version... BOOST_LIB_VERSION
configure: error: invalid value: boost_major_version=BOOSTLIB

It seems I should declare more flags, and I don't know how.

In the end, I decided and used packages boost-*-1.39.0-9.el5 from the 
atrpms repo and after that (I also had to install openldap-devel), 
configure finished OK. But make now has problems:

smysql.cc: In constructor \u2018SMySQL::SMySQL(const string&, const 
string&, uint16_t, const string&, const string&, const string&)\u2019:

However I managed to compile/make/install using ldap only:

    ./configure --with-modules="ldap"

and now pdns works fine with ldap backend:

(Red Hat 4.1.2-50)) starting up

Did some tests with queryperf and some AXFRs too. No errors and Ticket 
313 is handled (logging time by ldap backend is correct local time).

Anyone can tell me how to "make" including gmyslq backend?
