Title: Samb 2.2.0
Post by: Adam on April 18, 2001, 06:22:49 AM

The new samba suite is out with fixes for windows 2000 clients is there any chancewe can get some instructions or maybe an e-smith rpm so we can do this simply and quickly. My job as an it-manager-trainee may very well depend on this

Hi,
just do a rpm -e --nodeps samba samba-common and install the new Samba 2.2.0 rpm from samba.org, there is a rpm for RedHat 7.0 that works fine for me with e-smith 4.1.1

greetings
tina

Learning as fast as possible. Under staffed and under funded department that is growing rapidly and requires centralized server with no money to buy one

I get errors when I try to install the upgrade package.  I copy the link location from my browser and in my telnety client i have tried rpm -uvh and rpm -ivh folowed by the link.  It downloads the file and attempts to install it but it says it conflicts with samba client 2.0.7?  Any suggestions I have tried the ubove command and still no go.

Thanks

I read Tina's post, and it didn't work.  I also had to rpm -e --nodeps samba-clients before I could install samba-2.2.0 (which I did with -Uvh out of force of habit).

I erased samba client and got the s.s to install.  However the usernames don't work you have to log on as samba with no password.  how do I change this.  Also I still can't get win2k to join the domain still getting the credentials error.

I don't know about win2k, as I haven't gotten it working yet.  However, I think removing either samba-common or samba-clients nukes your smbpasswd file, so you'll need to rebuild it by resetting the password for all your users.

Hi

I followed Tina's suggestion, I downloaded an rpm for RedHat7 but when I try
to install it, using

rpm -ivh -nodeps samba-2.2.0.......

The installation script stops with the following errors

/etc/samba/samba.xinetd no such file or directory

/etc/samba/samba.stack no such file or directory

Is there some other package to install ?

Thank you

Bye
