Or WSL2. I hear that works pretty well these days.

Hi Joshua,
It's likely related to this discussion:
More than just that. OpenLDAP code supports real POSIX environments and native WIN32 environments. It doesn't support Cygwin, which is a partially-working fake POSIX environment.
You can use Cygwin or MSYS as the build platform, but the binaries will only work if built with the MinGW toolchain for native WIN32 output.
Unfortunately this is for a government contract project and we are being mandated to use windows and not a containerized environment. Docker for windows was also booted.
I have MSYS installed, as well as latest openldap source.

I installed Msys and ran the pacman commands via the instructions here: https://www.msys2.org/. I then opened a MSYS MinGW 64-bit command prompt and ran configure, make depend, and make. Make ends with the following error
C:/msys64/mingw64/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/11.2.0/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: .libs/os-ip.o: in function `ldap_int_poll': C:/Users/USAF_Admin/Desktop/openldap-2.6.1/openldap-2.6.1/libraries/libldap/os-ip.c:391: undefined reference to `ber_pvt_wsa_err2string' collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [Makefile:437: libldap.la] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/USAF_Admin/libraries/libldap' make[1]: *** [Makefile:312: all-common] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/USAF_Admin/libraries' make: *** [Makefile:320: all-common] Error 1
Any ideas?
