Hi All, I am in the process of uploading RPM packages for the above to the samba FTP site. They should appear within 24 hours. I am receiving about 5-10 requests per day for such binary packages and had the opportunity to help. The packages will be available under: ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/Binary_Packages/redhat/RPMs/7.0 look for a package called: samba-2.2.0alpha3-20010325.i386.rpm the source package is also available from the samba FTP site. This package is completely UNTESTED. If it does not work, please let me know at: jht@samba.org - I will try to fix it. NOTE: Anyone wishing to upgrade the Red Hat packages should first uninstall the Red Hat samba 2..0.7 packages as follows: rpm -e samba-client rpm -e samba-common rpm -e samba Next install the new package by: rpm -Uvh samba-2.2.0alpha2-20010325.i386.rpm Cheers, John T.
