[Samba] RECOVER FILE DAEMON SMBD SAMBA

[Tiago Damasceno ::: TDA INFORMÁTICA]

This facility was not made by me but by another trader who worked here in
the company before me.
He did not follow the standard methods of directory applications, so you
must be wondering the files in different directory.

I'm having a hard time understanding what my predecessor did, since it was
unusual.

Actually I thought about reinstalling the samba and make a new file server,
however, my United Linux distribution is based on a very old version of
SUSE, when I try to upgrade samba to a newer version it asks a series of
dependencies.

I'm afraid that installing these dependencies can cause some side effects,
because I have an application running on the Oracle server.

Did not anyone could just send me this file? Since we can not find anywhere
the blessed?
