Oh yeah, here's the reason I want to know how to build the Binaries (I am using
the Tar File from Samba).

Whenever I attempt to rpm --rebuild ***.src.rpm the required Binaries are not
installed on my machine.  Further more, I am unable to install these binaries
Because I am forced to use the Glibc 2.1.1 libraries which are all that the
Informix Software packages will run on.

Now, can someone tell me what the command to the configure command looks like
when you attempt to compile the Samba Tar bundle for a Linux Mandrake Server?
