If you just want to share some files, version 2 will fit your needs.....
So skip the part installing samba and continue with setting it up from the
howto.....

Subject: RE: Samba installation error
hello Dirk,
thanks for the info. Sorry, im new to the Linux World.
I just wanted to ask, will the samba2.....that comes with my RedHat9.2
installation work for what I want to achieve(to connect my LinuxPC to my Windows
PC so that I can exchange files between the two?) - im asking so that I dont
uninstall Samba2 and begin to have problems installing the new version.
Also, you said "it has to be configured via command line, swat or
webmin" how do I configure it?
thanks
Toks
Hi,
at first, use the default samba mailing list (samba@samba.org)
second, you have to uninstall samba first, before installing the new release.
rpm -e samba-2.....
rpm -ivh samba-3.....
or use the redhat package manager or kde packagemanager (kpackage)
third, you won't find any samba icon, it has to be configured via command
line, swat or webmin.
hope this helps....

-| so I thought that maybe the RedHat9 installation I got comes with a
-| version of SAMBA? am I right?
-|
-| If so, how do i "activate/configure" it, coz it doesnt no
-| icon of SAMBA
-| shows up in my startup menu.
-|
-| Thanks
