Sysadmin Question

[Joel Hammer]

You could rpm -e the old installation. It likely won't harm anything. I
would just make sure you your backed up your smb.conf file, just in case.
You can have conflicts with the old binaries. They will be in your path,
whereas the new binaries are not in your path, since they are in
/usr/local/samba/bin. Thus, if you run smbmount without a path, you'll run
the old binary.
(You did configure samba with --with-smbmount ?)
