[Samba] Any pitfalls updating straight from 3.0.34 to 3.5.2?
Okay, so I've just put the sernet repo file in my yum.repos.d directory and a yum update will elevate my samba server to the latest version. Is there any pitfall that is out there that I can avoid before yum updating. Centos 5.3 samba3-3.0.34-37 & related packages openldap-2.3.43-3.el5 & related packages I still have my samba3-3.0.34 packages squirreled away so I can force downgrade if I need to, but I don't want to if I don't have to. Any advice before the plunge? Ray

Some entries in your smb.conf have changed default values. Get a listing from "testparm -v" before and after to be able to work around those details. Also, IIRC, With the newer samba 3 packages (starting around 3.3), you need to have a correctly configured krb5.conf file. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tony Hoover, Network Administrator KSU - Salina, College of Technology and Aviation (785) 826-2660 "Don't Blend in..." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -----Original Message----- From: samba-bounces at lists.samba.org [mailto:samba-bounces at lists.samba.org] On Behalf Of ray klassen Sent: Friday, April 16, 2010 10:46 AM To: samba at lists.samba.org Subject: [Samba] Any pitfalls updating straight from 3.0.34 to 3.5.2?

If you're not connecting to an Active Directory (either as a trusted domain, or as a domain member), configuring Kerberos may not be required. If you do require Kerberos, the [realms] and [domain_realm] sections would need to be customized for your network. Additionally, the default_realm entry in the [libdefaults] section would need to be edited. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tony Hoover, Network Administrator KSU - Salina, College of Technology and Aviation (785) 826-2660 "Don't Blend in..." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -----Original Message----- From: ray klassen [mailto:julius_ahenobarbus at yahoo.co.uk] Sent: Friday, April 16, 2010 1:04 PM To: Hoover, Tony Subject: Re: [Samba] Any pitfalls updating straight from 3.0.34 to 3.5.2? Wow. Thanks. Is there any quick way do create a krb5.conf file.
