When you unpack your samba-2.2.81.tar.gz, the system create a directory
named samba-2.2.8a. In this directory, you can type :
./configure
make
make install
The default directory (after compilation) of samba when you use a source
tarball is /usr/local/samba.
smb.conf, smbpasswd, smbd, nmbd, ... is in this directory.
If you want to use this version you must modify the startup script ofi
samba.
In RedHat or other distribution, the startup script can be fount in
/etc/rc.d/init.d, in suse distribution, you may find the script path and
modify the script for execute smbd and nmbd with the correct path.
