Perhaps a rather stupid question, but I have not found the complete correct way to upgrade a Samba installation on FreeBSD. I always use the ports to install the newer version, but after a while I discovered that the installation of the new version did not uninstall the previous version, so when you look at the installed packages (pkg_info) you can see all older versions, they can be uninstalled

Hope someone can help here: I have upgraded from Samba 2.0.7 to Samba 2.2.0 without changing anything in the config files, and everything goes well. Now I am looking at what can and what must be changed for this new version.

Hi! I know this is about the most asked question on these lists. I've been searching the archives looking for an answer, but all I can find is the same question over and over...
