[Samba] Problem upgrading Samba on Solaris 8 - getting "requires that a unique instance error"

[Clayton Kroh]

Running Solaris 8 in a Sun E-250 and when I attempted to upgrade a working

Samba install from version 3.0.24 to version 3.0.25a I got this error:

------------------------------------------

# pkgadd -d samba-3.0.25a-sol8-sparc-local 

 

The following packages are available:

  1  SMCsamba     samba

                  (sparc) 3.0.25a

 

Select package(s) you wish to process (or 'all' to process

all packages). (default: all) [?,??,q]: all

 

Processing package instance <SMCsamba> from
</var/tmp/Samba3.0.25a/samba-3.0.25a-sol8-sparc-local>

 

samba

(sparc) 3.0.25a

 

Current administration requires that a unique instance of the

<SMCsamba> package be created.  However, the maximum number of

instances of the package which may be supported at one time on the

same system has already been met.

 

No changes were made to the system.

------------------------------------------------------

 

The command "pkginfo -l |grep -i samba" shows

 

PKGINST:  SMCsamba

NAME:  samba

VENDOR:  The Samba Group

PKGINST:  samba

VENDOR:  Samba Team

EMAIL:  samba at samba.org

 

Do I need to run the command "pkgrm SMCsamba" and then run the upgrade
again?

 

Thanks
