I'm a RHAS3 sysadmin; everything that Red Hat has to do with Python craps out on updates of every sort. Do NOT run the Red Hat Samba GUI, it's useless anyway, run SWAT - if you have to use any GUI at all - which you definitely should not.

If you stick to what is in the Samba .pdf docs and *everything* that is written in them, including the appendices, you will get your system working again. Most Red Hat system configuration GUIs are worthless and using many of them at all can/probably will completely ruin your system. Unless you make a real effort to understand complicated software such as Samba (also Postfix, OpenLDAP, SQL and others) from the bottom up, you can never expect things to work. --Tonni -- mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.billy.demon.nl -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
