I am using redhat 7.3 and was hoping some 'maintainer god' somewhere
was packaging samba with the latest security fix. So I used red
carpet on one system, and apt-get update on another to update to samba
2.2.8 (think this was version with the security patch in it)
Well, apt-get and redcarpet both ran and updated me to
Get:2 http://apt.freshrpms.net redhat/7.3/en/i386/updates samba-common
2.2.7-2.7.3 [2420kB]
Get:3 http://apt.freshrpms.net redhat/7.3/en/i386/updates samba
2.2.7-2.7.3 [2577kB]
Get:4 http://apt.freshrpms.net redhat/7.3/en/i386/updates file
3.39-8.7x [176kB]
Get:5 http://apt.freshrpms.net redhat/7.3/en/i386/updates samba-client
2.2.7-2.7.3 [1950kB]
I'm confused. Are these patched samba with the latest security fixes?
