Hello Currently I have Samba running on one AIX machine. Rather then go through the install process again, I do not have a 'C' compiler on this new machine, can I tar the /usr/local/samba directory and place it on the new machine? The AIX releases are the same and the ML is the same. Please reply via email address: Bob.Fritz@namerica.ikea.com Bob Fritz UNIX Administrator Email: Bob.Fritz@namerica.ikea.com
