[TriLUG] Samba client problems

[Vestal, Roy L.]

I haven't had good luck with the RPM. I have to modify it too much for my
use. I use the samba-latest.tar.gz from www.samba.org . If you can install
the RPM then the dependancies are probably there.

I recommend trying this once. If you can get it working for you, then you
can trim alot of fat out of the RPM and create your own! :)

I installed from a package.  The support is in the kernel supposedly.

Is SMB file system support included statically or as a module in your
kernel?
