Yes, that's so you can install samba-2.2.x in parallel with samba3 (there are some situations where this is really necessary), and so that someone running 'urpmi --auto-select' on the samba urpmi medium doesn't have a nasty surprise ... If you want samba3 packaged to replace samba-2.2.x, either rebuild the SRPM: $ rpm --rebuild samba-3.0.0-2mdk.src.rpm --with system or grab packages here: http://ranger.dnsalias.com/mandrake/9.1/samba-3.0.0/ > Testparm runs against /etc/samba/smb.conf yet swat configures the > smb.conf in a different location...hmm....

Every single binary you are going to use (if you are only using samba-3.0.0) will have a 3 suffix. > Perhaps there are two versions of samba here? $ rpm -q samba-server $ rpm -q samba3-server $ rpm -ql samba-common $ rpm -ql samba3-common > I loaded a clean mandrake > 9.1 install and then loaded the RPM's. > > Should I scrap this idea and compile from scratch on Mandrake? You could, but it would be much easier to: 1)use them as is (net3, testparm3, service smb3 start etc ...) 2)rebuild the SRPM 3)Use the packages I have made available 4)Convince me that for samba-3.0.1 the packages on the samba FTP mirrors should be build with '--with system', possibly wiping out some user's installations. 5)Wait for Mandrake 10.0 (we have just switched samba to 3.0.1 in Mandrake cooker, samba-2.2.x is now called samba2). BTW, you may also want to consider using Mandrake 9.2 instead, since 9.2 has Kerberos MIT 1.3.x, which will make life a bit easier for Winbind/AD. Also, 9.2 uses alternatives for samba-client/samba3-client which makes some other things more convenient.
