Samba how-to files for SME 5.1.2
« on: January 21, 2003, 03:44:26 AM »
Darrell May has removed the files from his site for the older Samba How-to for SME 5.1.2.  Does anyone know if the current version of his how-to contrib files will work on SME 5.1.2?

I am leary of installing it on my production server since I am working on it remotely and will not be able to be present for another month.  If it were to go down, it would extremely terrible to say the least.

I ran an RPM -U --test on the SME 5.5 contrib files and it shows that the install has a dependency for a file called libreadline.so.4.  I don't know if the package which holds that file can be installed without breaking or needed something else.

I plan to upgrade to 5.6 in a few months, but for now I would like to get the updated Samba on my server.

If anyone happens to have the old files from Darrells Samba how-to for SME 5.1.2 laying around I would be greatly appreciative if you were able to send them to me or tell me where I can get them.

Thanks for any help!

Yeah, exactly why I didn't want to just "try it" because if it broke something I would not be back near the server for another month.

I only wanted something that was proven in a production environment.
