My questions are very basic. The FC3-bundled samba is in /etc/samba, and the "upgrade" went into /usr/local/samba. To get SWAT to work, I had to copy the smb.conf that's in /etc/samba into /usr/local/samba/lib. However, this latter version is not read by the networking functionality, or by CUPS--only when I used KDE's samba editor to edit /etc/samba/smb.conf was I able to see my Linux box from my Windows machines (running Win2k) or get printing to work. I have 2 samba versions installed, but my system is still using only the older version.
So: How do I point SWAT at the etc/samba version? How do I get my system to use the newer version in its different location? More optimally, how do I control the installation destination directory, so that I can install future versions (including reinstalling 3.0.14a) into /etc/samba?
Thanks for your help.
