Hello, Running configure with no options against samba 2.2.5 source on SuSE Linux 7.1, I am advised: checking configure summary ERROR: No locking available. Running Samba would be unsafe configure: error: summary failure. Aborting config Searching on google, Kernel Cousin #15 suggests it's a configure script problem. However, that was in March 2000... Thank you for any guidance. About me. I am a technical consultant to several non-profit organizations and businesses in Southern California. I've installed and maintained samba on linux for a couple years in small office environments. -- Matthew Easton Sublunar Networks
