My http authentication through winbind has stopped working with a Fedora
Core 2 update of httpd and samba (and others),
httpd-2.0.49-4 -> httpd-2.0.50-2.1 & samba-3.0.3-5 -> samba-3.0.6-2.fc2
which I believe is caused by a winbind bug
(http://us1.samba.org/samba/news/#comingsoon_3.0.7)
What is the best strategy to fix this? I can think of two:
1) rpm --erase all the samba-*-3.0.6-2.fc2 packages and
rpm --install all the samba-*-3.0.3-5 packages
I have never done this, but suppose it will work.
2) download the Samba 3.0.6 source, apply the patch, compile, install,
& run
I am worried this will somehow interfer w/ samba-*-3.0.6-2.fc2 packages
preventing me from using the Fedora update in the future.
Thanks,
Andrw
