Excellent,

don't suppose you wanna do it for DB3 and postfix??

I don't know if I am alone or not, but I still use 7.2 for anything
important, and won't swap till 8.1 (assuming it has no hassles in its first
months...)

Its most annoying that mandrake don't really support their VERY recient
distro's except for security stuff...

the last two mandrake distros, both suggested that it would be better to
wipe and start again rather then try to upgrade..

7.1-7.2  reinstall don't upgrade.
7.2-8.0  Ditto.

This is bad, it offers no migration path, and is one reason people have so
much more faith in debian for this stuff.

Its made worse by mandrake dropping all support for their product when a
newer version comes out. (with the acception of afore mentioned security
updates.)

I really want to use Amavis with postfix on 7.2 and I don't want to use the
dual postfix method,

That means I need to use a version that supports external programs, ie the
mdk8 version....


meaning that I have to go and build it from scratch,, its just annoying I
guess.

I am wondering if there are alot of other people who are not prepared to use
mdk8 on servers yet?

Subject: [expert] Samba Source / Binary RPMS for 7.2


Since there have been so many requests recently for a 'samba 2.2.1a' RPM
for Mandrake 7.2, I recently finished creating an SRPM and RPM that will
work for a stock 7.2 install (without having to "force" upgrades to 8.0).

The SRPM (which those of you on less than i686's will need), is available
at http://webspinners.uwf.org/~mviron/mdk72/SRPMS/

The i686 RPMS are available from
http://webspinners.uwf.org/~mviron/mdk72/RPMS/

If by chance you do have a stock 7.2 install running on a Pentium 1 and
rebuild the SRPM for i586, please send a copy to me (offlist) so that I can
add it to the collection.

Michael
