samba - Nov 2002 - Installing samba 2.2.6 on Mac OS 10.2.x

I am trying to install Samba 2.2.6 over the default installation of samba 2.2.3a
that ships with Mac OS 10.2.1.
I have tried to install this with the configure line from apple's guide to
compiling samba
http://www.opensource.apple.com/projects/documentation/ howto/html/osxsmb.html,
but this was with a previous version of os 10.

The configure line reads,
./configure --with-syslog --prefix=/etc/samba \
  --bindir=/usr/bin --sbindir=/usr/sbin --libdir=/etc/samba
--mandir=/usr/share/man

This config line could not install samba, because there was a problem with cups,
so I added-
--disable-cups to the config line.

Has anyone compiled a newer version (2.2.6?) of samba over version 2.2.3a
included with
mac os 10.2.x??

Thanks very much,
Ian

The typical way ist 

	./configure
	./make
	./make install

The last step must be as superuser/root/admin/bofh or else.

This should be ok, id you havn't cups on your maschine.

I do not recommend compiling it over the default install, for two 
reasons. First, any OS updates will likely hose your installation, and 
second, the Apple version of Samba includes some extra trickery to 
allow Samba to interact with NetInfo via the Authentication Manager (or 
Open Directory, in 10.2). You're much better off installing Samba in 
the default /usr/local/samba location, and disabling the built-in Apple 
version.
