I have got installed at the moment the default samba 2.2.3 that comes with LM8.2 and want to upgrade to 2.2.8a, I have just downloaded the following files
samba-doc-2.2.8a-2mdk.i586.rpm samba-common-2.2.8a-2mdk.i586.rpm samba-client-2.2.8a-2mdk.i586.rpm samba-server-2.2.8a-2mdk.i586.rpm samba-swat-2.2.8a-2mdk.i586.rpm There all destined for the main file server, I understand I have to install all of the above packages When I try to install any of them I keep being told about 2.2.3 having dependencies for 2.2.3. Do I have to uninstall the previous version first ? Or do I do a force. Also is there any particular order they have to be installed. There's a first time for everybody, and this is mine :o) [or should it be :o( ] I also tried urpmi samba-common-2.2.8a-2mdk.i585.rpm but get an error saying error registering local packages If I do a urpmi --update --auto-select samba It says it has to update the following dependences, over 2 cli screens worth and stating 311Mb, those listed include apache, cups, samba 2.2.7a, kde packages, KDEGames,e2fsprogs,telnet-client,ssh and loads more, do I really need to update all those ? It all looks quite daunting when I'm not sure ! Many thanks Ken -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
