samba - Mar 2002 - Installing Samba 2.2.3a on Mandrake 8.1

Hi everybody,

I've upgraded from 2.2.1 to 2.2.3a.  I've downloaded the zip file -
unzipped it in /root/tmp/Samba - run "./configure" - run
"make" - run "make
install".
Everything went well.  Restarted Linux and checked the version in swat.  It
still was 2.2.1.  Samba was running when I installed 2.2.3a.
What did I do wrong??

Thanks

not that easy ;o). check the options we pass to ./configure in our 
samba.spec: there might be some specific directories we're using. Anyway,
you
can grab the latest 2.2.3a rpm here:

http://people.mandrakesoft.com/~staburet/samba/RPMS/8.1/2.2.3a/
or maybe here:
http://ranger.dnsalias.com/mandrake/samba/RPMS/8.1/2.2.3a/

You should have uninstalled the samba 2.2.1 that comes with mandrake
first. How to do this -> mandrake docs (I don't use mandrake)
You should have looked at mandrake website / ftp server, as well as in
the archive for this list, if someone already made RPM packages for
samba 2.2.3a on madrake. Those woucl be much easier to handle.
