[rhn-users] WS3 patching samba problem on x86_64

[Dan Wittenberg]

If the db was messed up, I'd try doing an rpm -V on the samba packages
to be sure they really are sane.  Are you just trying to apply the
update?  Tried using up2date?  

I'm not familiar with the x86_64 arch. so maybe things are different
there.
