Question on samba team: It is really helpfull to have rpms. Are you thinking about creating also updated binary packages? Something like: samba-2.2.5-2.rpm or samba-2.2.5-1.print-patch.rpm? I thing that popularity of binary distributions is big. But if we are able to update samba only by compilling from source, than it looses its sence. Greetings Jan Kovar
