similar to: Warning when updating Samba via mandrake update

Hi there I am a novice Linux user and am just trying it out - I am very impressed but also very frustrated. I have loaded Mandrake 8 on a box and have configured Samba for Windows pc's use this as a backup data server. Works wonderfully - but our campus administrators say that the current version of Samba presents a security risk(2.0.7) and should be upgraded. Thought this was simple but

Hi, I would like to install SWAT to administer Samba on my Mandrake 9.0 server. The Swat file is ver 2.2.8 while my Samba is version 2.2.6. The installation aborts because of version differences. I have tried to upgrade Samba to version 2.2.8 but run into other problems with dependencies. Am I correct in thinking that I have to uninstall Samba first and then re-install the later version? And if

Are the latest updates for Samba ( 2.2.7a ) available on the mandrake update system yet ? Mr Smiley

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 RPMs of samba3 for Mandrake were uploaded to the samba FTP mirrors on Saturday.

I lost my bookmarks to the samba binaries compiled for Mandrake 9.0. I'd like to mess around with the 3.0 stuff. I remember there were 2 ftp sites that stayed pretty current. I'd like to add them to URPMI so I can update easily. Thanks Jim

I installed the RPMS from samba web site for Mandrake 9.1. Configuration is weird as things are labeled smbd3 or winbind3... Testparm runs against /etc/samba/smb.conf yet swat configures the smb.conf in a different location...hmm.... But really my problem is joining the AD domain as a member server. I can't locate the net tool. How is this done? How does testparm know to test against

<TEXTAREA NAME="Signature" ROWS="4" COLS="60"> I was wondering if some one could help me make some basic login scripts and tell me where to place them. I know nothing about them. I am trying to get my windows based mechines to login to my Mandrake 9.0 server I have windows ME and XP i got ME to login but XP won't. Can some one help Thanks David

Not to be the annoying child, but I have found myself uniquely annoyed that I can't update RPMs that include Samba 3, and I'm not certain if that's because it's even ready for Mandrake 9.2. Does anyone have a bead on this? Should I just go back to 2.2.8 and wait for the stable, or can someone point out a URL that has a stable 3.0 on it? Thanks Eric

I am attempting to integrate a Linux Samba Server with an NT 4.0 PDC. Ideally I am looking to authenticate the users on the PDC, and then permit access to the Samba Shares on the Linux Box. I have several issues, but the one which is presenting itself currently is when I attempt to Browse the PDC using smbclient. I get the following: smbclient -L dumbo added interface ip=192.168.0.11

When I attempted to "rpm -i samba3-3.0.0-1.1mdk.src.rpm" this morning on my Mandrake 9.2 box, I got an unusual message that doesn't make sense. It said, over and over (thirteen times total): WARNING: user bgmilne does not exist - using root When it went back to root prompt, I did an "updatedb", but nothing for "samba-3" is found when I did the urpmi request.

Hi, as pointed out by Neal Gompa, Mageia recently introduced dnf in the distribution (currently only in Cauldron, which is the future Mageia 6), and most probably it will replace urpmi in the future. As such, on Mageia make supermin prefer dnf over urpmi when found, using the same code already used for Fedora. Related change: make test-harder.sh work explicitly also on Mageia

Joseph, Please try my modified versions of these patches. These are compile-tested on Fedora and they don't break any existing functionality, but I don't have either urpmi nor a statically-linked xz so I cannot fully test them. I have also fixed detection of zlib (2/3). Rich.

Since Void Linux provides only an /etc/os-release with no VERSION_ID field, then special-case it to avoid that the os-release parsing ignore it. This provides basic distro identification, and icon. --- generator/actions.ml | 4 ++++ inspector/virt-inspector.rng | 1 + src/guestfs-internal.h | 1 + src/inspect-fs-unix.c | 14 ++++++++++++-- src/inspect-fs.c |

My thoughts on this after reading Steven's very politically worded reply is that IMO your best bet would be to go with RedHat, I am not going to go into details about the if's, when's, why's, and but's.. I am running Asterisk quite well on RedHat 9 and if you like I have created an install guide for setting up an Asterisk box on RedHat 9 which I can send to you if you are

In cases where parsing the release file failed and so we have an obviously incorrect major version number, don't try to infer the package manager from the major version number. In the bug report, parsing the /etc/redhat-release file of a CentOS 7.1 guest failed, so major version was set to 0, and the package manager was inferred as "up2date". virt-customize then failed with a
