Title: Warning Message when installing Updates on 5.6
Post by: Dave on June 12, 2003, 10:51:25 AM

Hi, I installed the latest updates for 5.6 using the rpm -Uvh --replacepkgs *.rpm and received a Warning message which said

/etc/samb/smb.conf created as /etc/samba/smb.conf.rpmnew

Now what's the impact and what do I have to do ????

Cheers

Dave

The samba-server package comes with a default configuration file, to be installed in /etc/samba/smb.conf, that was flagged in the package's spec file as a configuration file so as not to replace any existing /etc/samba/smb.conf file. rpm is saying that it put the package's default configuration file in /etc/samba/smb.conf.rpmnew and kept the existing configuration file, the one controlled by the SME Server's template system, as /etc/samba/smb.conf. This is exactly what you want.

Thank you,

I can rest a little more easily now.

Slowly I will get to grips with Linux, very slowly :~)
