Samba Upgrades for VMware Virtual Infrastructure Server 3.x

These updates allow for a better integration of VMware ESX Server into a W2K3 AD server. Without these updates things just do not work very well.

   * pam_krb5-2.2.11-1.i386.rpm
   * samba-client-3.0.25-2.i386.rpm
   * samba-common-3.0.25-2.i386.rpm
   * samba-3.0.25-2.src.rpm

To apply the updates. Download all three and run, as the root user, the command:

rpm -Uvh pam_krb5-2.2.11-1.i386.rpm samba-client-3.0.25-2.i386.rpm samba-common-3.0.25-2.i386.rpm

or if you wish to build the SRC RPM use:

rpmbuild --rebuild samba-3.0.25-2.src.rpm

I have built these tools to allow for a better integration with W2K3 based AD. I do not support these tools other than to provide them. If there are issues with these packages, please contact the package owners. There is a change from the existing 3.0.25 versions of Samba, I have disabled the ability to build mount.cifs and reinstated the smbmount packages into the build.
