[Samba] Is samba isntalled or not?

[Jair]

Ok, thank you very much Doug and John  Terpstra.

I managed to uninstall the packages. Then I ran again the
./configure,
 make
make install,

The smb.conf was created but samba is still not  installed because I cannot
start it . The /etc/init.d/smb is not there.

Am I missing something?

thanks

Jair
