Greetings list! I have a older Samba (v 2.0.7) server compiled with an older gcc (v 2.8.1) running on an older Solaris (v 2.5.1). I would like to upgrade to a newer version of Samba. I have had trouble compiling Samba version 3.0.1 with gcc version 2.8.1 on Solaris 2.5.1: $ ./configure check

No, not in my experience. Since Samba (in "domain" mode) will forward all authentication requests to the PDC of the domain, it just has to join the domain (which causes the PDC to create a machine account for the Samba server automagically). >>> Beast <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 01/09/03 20:20 PM >>> A
