Red Hat packages samba as three .rpm files, so you need to do something like: # rpm -qa | grep samba which gives you: samba-common-2.2.7a-7.9.0 samba-client-2.2.7a-7.9.0 samba-2.2.7a-7.9.0 then remove all of these: # for f in samba-client samba samba-common; do rpm -e $f; done (if any of these fail re-run them in the order of the dependencies, i think the above is right...) then try installing the samba-3.0.2a-1 package you will need to back up your smb.conf and any other files (.tdb files for example) that you already have configured on this server. You may also want to upgrade Red Hat 9 to Fedora Core 1 before you do this, as Red Hat 9 will be unsupported from the end of next month. I'm not sure offhand if FC1 still has the three samba packages, as I always don't install it and then compile/install it from source.
