Marv, My vote is with Sameer... read his prior letter and download the 4 rpms and install them. It will TRULY make your life easier. Being that you're using Samba at home, you're not going to gain anything over source vs. RPM. If this was a production deployment, I'd probably say different. But you'll have much easier control over the RPMS.
I had forgotten that you compiled from source. All yu need to do is dump the /usr/local/samba dir (after stopping samba of course). Then install the RPMS and start samba: "/etc/init.d/smb start" tori ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sameer Zeidat" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, June 07, 2003 4:08 PM Subject: RE: [Samba] samba newbie having trouble configuring samba on RH7.3... > Hi .. > > Ok .. swat isn't there because you compiled samba and installed it > using the default location '/usr/local/samba-2.2.8a' .. so even if you > create 'swat' manually my guess is that you'll run into other problems > because of this location. > > For example, the binaries will be under '/usr/local/samba-2.2.8a/bin' > which is not in the default path. > > Anyway, I'm trying to tell you that your best bet is to use RPMs > instead of that. > > Good luck > > > >Thanks > >swat wasn't located in xinetd so I ended up creating it and adding > >disable=no line.
