I have just taken over a redhat system with Samba 3.0.0 configured
with security = user, and domain logins enabled. I've included the
smb.conf at the end of this message.
I would like to upgrade to 3.0.10 for a numbers of reasons, one
being security and one being that password changes don't work
from workstation machines because of the Windows KB828741
patch. What I want to know, is if I should expect any
incompatibilities between versions or if my existing config
files will work with the new version? This is a mission
critical system, so I really don't want to upgrade unless
there are going to be very minimal issues.
Will a simple rpm -Uvh ./samba-3.0.10-1_rh9.i386.rpm put me
in the clear?
Thanks for your help.

If you are going from a Red Hat supplied Samba release to one released
by samba.org various things will be in different places. /etc/samba/
will remain the same however and your config files should translate
over. Also keep in mind that Red Hat has split it's Samba package into
three groups (samba, samba-client, samba-common). My advice is to
remove all of your existing samba packages (backing up your config files
of course) and then doing a clean install if this is the case.
