samba - Dec 2002 - Installation of SAMBA 2.2.7a

Hello,

I had downloaded the samba 2.2.7a tarball, the pubkey and the
samba-2.2.7a.tar.asc files from your website.

The import of the samba-pubkey.asc works probably, but by the verify I get the
errormessage that no path to this signature is defined and the signature
can't
verified.

The distribution of Linux is the SuSE 8.0 and I used this lines.

     gpg --import samba-pubkey.asc
     gunzip samba-latest.tar.gz
     mv samba-latest.tar samba-2.2.7a.tar
     gpg --verify samba-2.2.7a.tar.asc

kind regards

It's because gpg can't find a path of trust from you to the samba 
distribution key.  See teh GnuPG or PGP documentation for a better 
explanation of trusts.
