[Samba] Samba + ACL - Heading OT

[Mark Lidstone]

Automated update system supplied with Fedora.  Kinda like the RHN, but
free and more up to date version-wise, but without the package checking
done by Redhat.

If you're running Fedora and it's installed, typing "yum update <package
name>" will update a package to the latest version on your downloads
site (it defaults to download.fedora.redhat.com), yum install <package
name>" installs a package you haven't currently got installed, "yum
remove <package name>" removes it and "yum update" will attempt to
update all the packages on your machine.

The last time I looked a couple of days ago, the latest version that
Redhat were giving of Samba was 3.0.3, but that might have changed now.

I know it's a lazy way of doing things, but it saves me a lot of time.

I'm a little worried that this is going a bit OT for the list, so if
anyone wants any more information, just email me directly.

Finally a quick google search finds you plenty of information on it.

I hope this helps,
