Dieter, You need to uninstall the Red Hat Samba packages. rpm -e samba-client rpm -e samba-server rpm -e samba-common To find the correct names of the packages (I may have them hosed up) do: rpm -qa | grep samba Then after deleting the Red Hat packages you can install the Samba-Team package. rpm -Uvh samba-2.2.0-2001XXXX.i386.rpm -- John H Terpstra Email: jht@samba.org "The only way to make money - is to print it!", anonymous
Hi John,> You need to uninstall the Red Hat Samba packages. > > rpm -e samba-client > rpm -e samba-server > rpm -e samba-commonGood guess ... but no-go. They were not present. I tried two different methods - installing fresh from RedHat 6.2, with NO samba installation, and installing fresh from RedHat 6.2, WITH samba (redhat's 2.0.6-9 build). In both cases, I geth the same "error execution of %post scriplet failed" message. Any other ideas?? Thanks, Dietmar
Hi John,> After removing the old package you may have to do the following: > > rpm -Uvh --nodeps --force samba-2.2.0......I still get the message "Installing stack version of /etc/pam.d/samba" "mv: /etc/samba/samba.stack: No such file or directory" "execution of %post failed ..." However, I now have smbmount and smbumount commands! After removing 2.2.0, then cat'ing an empty file to /etc/samba/samba.stack, and then rerunning the command you give above, the installation reports no errors. /etc/samba/samba.stack disappears during the rpm install, but things seem to be working just fine so far ... Thanks! Dietmar
