Howdy,
I'm trying to install Samba on a FC5 server. Seems like it would be very simple
with yum ('yum install samba'), but although I get an "Complete!" message, I
can't find 'smbd' or 'nmbd'. I tried 'updatedb' and 'locate smbd' and also
'find / | grep smbd' but still no luck. I see that the /etc/samba dir and the
init.d scripts were created.
I just tried another install using yum with debug and error reporting on:
'yum -d 6 -e 1 install samba'
Here's a partial output from yum:
...

Complete!
I'm pretty sure the *.rpmnew files aren't a problem, but what about the errors?
Any ideas how I should approach debugging this?
Thanks,
John Hebert
