Re: [CentOS] Missing samba binaries

Mark Hull-Richter wrote:

I went to enable samba on my home machine, which has a largely plain vanilla install of CentOS 4.4 Plus, and the smbd and nmbd files are missing. As you may know, this makes it rather difficult to run samba. For some reason, the winbindd binary is present, and rpm reports:

samba-common-3.0.10-1.4E.11 samba-client-3.0.10-1.4E.11

as present. So how do I retrieve the missing samba binaries/ Do I remove and reinstall the packages, or do I rebuild the latest samba from source, or . . . ???

yum install samba samba-swat

(the 2nd is optional... I use it to simplify configuring samba as the .conf file is long and complex....)
