That only gets you started.  Samba has numerous dependencies that it 
calls upon at compile/built time  Most are fairly easily determined 
by examining the Samba config file.  However, there are calls to 
specific functions/routines in master libraries that are not at all easy 
to determine...

I started down this path a few months back.   Put a couple hours into it 
and a few posts to devinfo.  I never made it past the last hurdle 
because Charlie built the RPMs for me.  Since, I haven't taken the time 
to go back and pickup where I left off.

 clearly easier to do than bother explaining how to do :-) He's right 
 though - you need a redhat development environment, not an SME server to 
 develop RPMs. Do yourself a favour and install redhat on your desktop.


Graeme, do you know which version of Redhat to install?  I tried this 
two or three different ways and wouldn't work: one was redhat with a 
2.2.19 kernel (I think v7.0) and then two other versions of Redhad using 
kernel 2.4.x.  Neither seemed to work as SME is kind of a Redhat hybrid 
where an old kernel is used with new RPMs.

Precisely. What is needed for 5.5 compatible development is a RedHat 7.2 
server running the 2.2.19-7.0.8 kernel from RedHat 7.0.

For most things, the kernel which is running doesn't matter. Samba RPM
building is one thing where the version does matter, as the samba
configuration script determines various compile time settings by probing
the features of the currently running system.

For perl development and RPM building (for instance, for doing stuff with 
configuration templates, web panels and action scripts), development can 
be done on an SME server.

Agreed.  I attempted to build Samba 2.2.3 when it came out, with no 
success.  When I asked Mitel what they did, they told me to build the 
RPMs on a Redhat box, which I did.  Problem is, SME isn't stock RedHat. 
  The RPMS built and installed fine on my Redhat box, but wouldn't on my 
SME machine as it uses an older kernel.  This means that you have to 
install all of the supporting RPMs on your SME machine and build there. 
As Darnell pointed out, this is not a trivial undertaking...

I memory servers, when I asked Charlie what they did to build the RPMs, 
he simply built them and posted on the Mitel site.

found rebuilding the samba source for SME is not a trivial undertaking. 
With the knowledge that has been shared, I've been able to understand the
basics and move forward.

This required implementing all the dependencies required to rebuild from the
samba source (about a dozen rpms) then perform the rebuild on samba-2.2.4-3
and 2.2.5-4 source.

I'm now building a 5.1.2 and 5.5 test server and seeing if these rebuilds
work.  I'll let everyone know the results as soon as I'm done.
