Re: removing samba
Hi John Nichel, To find the samba version just type rpm -qa | grep samba. This will list the samba package complete name with version. Then you can give rpm -e samba...

Re: removing samba
Was Samba installed by RPM? Do a `rpm -q samba` If Samba was installed via RPM, it will show you something like... samba-x.x.x-x.x.x So then you can just rpm -e samba-x.x.x-x.x.x Ted Gervais wrote: Can anyone tell me the proper way of using RPM to uninstall Samba.

Re: removing samba
"rpm -qa" will show which RPMs are installed.

removing samba
Can anyone tell me the proper way of using RPM to uninstall Samba. I have looked at the help screen that comes up with RPM and have tried all choices. No luck so far.
