The current samba release is 2.2.4. The -1 or -2 have nothing to do with the version of Samba but are packaging versions. The samba.org package and the redhat rpm are not the same.

Re: [Samba] Problems installing Samba
I guess you are trying to start samba from /etc/pam.d/samba. That's not a binary but the pam config file for samba. The binaries that have to be started are smbd and nmbd, if you installed with rpm these should be in /usr/sbin. Even easier: run "/etc/rc.d/init.d/smb start" or use "service smb start" If you want samba to start automatically use "chkconfig --level 2345 smb on" Jerry Cain wrote: > Have RH7.1 and am trying to install Samba 2.2.2.
