Samba on Fc 6

[fusionops]

Hi ,
I am trying to install samba on Fc 6 . I downloaded following packages
samba-3.0.23d-1.i386.rpm , samba-common-3.0.23d-1.i386.rpm,samba-client-3.0.23d-1.i386.rpm and samba-swat-3.0.23d-1.i386.rpm.

I am able to install common and client package fine but while installing server (samba-3.0.23d-1.i386.rpm ).I get following error
error: Failed dependencies:
libgnutls.so.12 is needed by samba-3.0.23d-1.i386.i tried using yum too and still the same error.
I checked directory /usr/lib and i see following files
/usr/lib/libgnutls.so.13
/usr/lib/libgnutls.so.13.0.6
/usr/lib/libgnutls-extra.so.13
/usr/lib/libgnutls-extra.so.13.0.6
/usr/lib/libgnutls-openssl.so.13
/usr/lib/libgnutls-openssl.so.13.0.6


I appreciate your help.
Thanks and Regards

did you install via yum or samba site?

everything you need to get it running is in the fedora repos and accessible via yum

[fusionops]

I tried the following
yum install yum -y localinstall samba-3.0.23d-1.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh samba-3.0.23d-1.i386.rpm
webmin
double clicking the rpm
everything stucks at mising dependency.
Please advise
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
I installed fedora core6 and chose all the packages in application software,development,system except language.
I installed Fc 6 succesfully with all 5 cds.
I saw a congratulation msg and reboot instruction.
After rebooting it ask me about firewall etc .I disabled firewall.
I was then prompted for creating a non root user which I did after that I hit next
Screen appeared completely blank.
I tried rebooting but no help
Before this I installed FC 6 with pakage slection later option and it was fine

ANy help greatly appreciated.
Thanks and regard

dump the rpms you downloaded you do not need them

as root:

PHP Code:

yum install samba* 


That should install samba and all nescessary files for you.

if you want webmin you can throw that in as well.

Another option would be to run pirut and search samba

Try my how to from FC4 / FC5 it should work the same...

Your grub.conf is not correct. You will find it in your /boot directory (or /boot/grub)

I also had those articles on my site but have since removed them looking at doing the rebuild...


THere is some insight on this issue found here: http://fedoraforum.org/forum/showthr...ight=grub.conf

Thanks again.I reintslled it fine without the package selection.i.e customize it later setting.
But facing another problem.I can not install any software.I get header error when I try to use installer if I use Yum it says another copy is running existing lock.How to remove lock on yum?

Alos on Fc disk 1 I see two 586 kernel rpms rest are all 386 kernel.Do I need to replace the 586 to 386 if so whats the procedure.

Please advice at your earliest convenience.
Thanks and Regards

That is one issue I think they need to fix. If you run pirut, pup, and or yum they all will process lock yum. They should instead get in line and handle the trasactions in order.

I believe the lock can be removed by:

rm -f /var/run/yum.pid

Thanks so much.I removed the lock on yum.
I was wondering if could tell me this i586 kernel rpms that I have on my disk 1.
two 586 kernel rpms
kernel-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6.i586.rpm
kernel-devel-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6.i586.rpm
are 586 rest are all 386 kernel.Do I need to replace the 586 to 386 if so whats the procedure.
I have pentium xeon .I am nots sure which architeccture it belongs to
Thanks
