samba installation

[Josh Redmond]

Jim,

Try looking at Red Hat's site for any updated docs relating to samba.
I am running a Red Hat 7.1 machine setup with samba and there are some
interesting changes.
First, samba is now in the /usr/share directory with the executables
residing in /usr/sbin.
Second, all the .conf files related to samba are in /etc/samba.

You'll see what I mean if you do a "locate samba |less" at the command line.

Hope that helps!

Josh

Hi,

I have tried to install samba in rh 7.1 and noticed that I do not have the
/usr/local/samba directory.
so I tried to re-install and uninstall and install again and the darn
directory is not there.
I'm using
rpm -Uv samba-2.2.1a-4.i386.rpm
i have also tried installing the samba-common, samba-client and samba-swat
manually to be sure the the samba-2.2.1a-4.i386.rpm installed anything it
required and still no /usr/local/samba directory.

I do not know where to go from here as the linuxdocs.org assumes your
package is installed and ready to configure.
