Help needed - Cant Upgrade from Samba 3.0.3-5

[Paul Farrow]

Please find my post to the samba mailing list, I have elaborated a bit
more
 
Firstly I am new to this list but have used samba for years on various
flavours of redhat with great results until now.

I have recently upgraded my mini-itx v8000 from redhat 9 to fedora core
2. Samba is fine except there now appears to be no smbmount / unable to
mount with fstab type of smbfs to mount the windows shares.

Looking at the version the fedora distribution installed (3.0.3-5) I
thought I would upgrade to samba 3.0.4-2. Which I downloaded the source
built the rpm and then tried to install and got various dependency
errors all seemed to be telling me that I dont have samba 3.0.3, looked
for various binaries / source for the straight 3.0.3 and cant find
anything.

I then decided to try the 3.0.4-1.i386.rpm and got the following error 

/etc/security/selinux/file_contexts: No such file or directory [I guess
this isnt a real problem]

error: Failed dependencies:

libcom_err.so.3 is needed by samba-3.0.4-1

samba-common >= 3.0.0 is needed by (installed) gnome-vfs2-smb-2.6.0-8

any ideas please as I dont normally get errors like this from
distributions !!!

Any help appreciated, I have posted on the fedora mailing list also but
to no avail.

Cheers

Firstly apologies but I am new to this list, is there a way to browse
all the old mails???
 
Now my problem - I upgraded from redhat 9.0 to Fedora 2 running on a
mini-itx v8000 board.  Now I had to use the additional iso image to due
to the reboot bug but Samba now doesnt appear to have a smbmount command
and no mount.smbfs in /sbin.  Therefore I cant mount my windows shares
any more.
 
When I try to upgrade to samba-3.0.4-2.src.rpm it keeps telling me that
it failed dependencies that it needs 3.0.3 well I can find the 3.0.3-1
version but not 3.0.3 exactly to use for the upgrade first???
 
What am I doing wrong ???
 
Thanks for any help in advance.
