When I type `emerge -vp -uD samba' it does not find andy dependancies and doesn't want to reinstall samba. Further no `samba or smb' flags are shown for samba in the output neith on or off. My understanding was that any USE flags that might effect a package are shown when you pretend install it. Even after adding `samba' and `smb' to /etc/make.conf, no `samba' or `smb' flag is apparently involved with a samba install. Further I've never had samba or smb in /etc/make.conf before and samba has worked fine over serveral installs. smbclient //host/share works fin now so doesn't that mean its working as expected? I am reinstalling samba with those flags in /etc/make.conf so will soon see if it made any difference. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
