As a rule, no--use Mandrake-specific RPMs. As Vincent demonstrated in the last day or so, it's often best to use Mandrake RPMs, even if it's not the latest.
Go to http://plf.zarb.org/~nanardon/index.php and configure urpmi sources. Then whenever you want to install something, do a
urpmi packagename
It'll take care of downloading, installing, and dependencies.
Thank you. I now have Samba server running on my system. Now all I need to do is figure out how to configure it.<g>
