Re: [Samba] Solaris binary distribution question /usr/local

[Aaron Bennett]

Solaris packages support both relocatable and non-relocatable files in the same package. It sounds to me like in this package, the lock files are marked as non-relocatable. You'd have to unspool the package with pkgtrans and try to modify the prototype file, changing the absolute paths to relative ones. In my opinion, you'll be running samba much faster if you just build it from source.

Luck,

HI! I am trying to configure the samba 2.2.7 binary from sunfreeware ( package for Solaris 7). Is there any way to override the default install location of /usr/local/samba for the lock files? I do not have access to /usr/local as it is NFS mounted and shared by all Solaris 7 boxes. I can pkgadd to a different root path, and I can -s the config file to the install location, but I cannot find a way to get the lock files in anything other than /usr/local, so I cannot start the smbd daemon. If I have to I'll build samba 2.2.7 on the box, but I thought I would ask here first. Thanks for your help
