Samba RPM-pakketten voor SUSE Linux Enterprise en openSUSE

Huidige uitgave

RPM pakketten van de huidige Samba uitgave voor alle op SUSE Linux gebaseerde producten zijn beschikbaar op:

• ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/samba/STABLE/ or
• http://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/samba/STABLE/

en op alle Samba.org mirrors:

• http://download.Samba.org/samba/ftp/Binary_Packages/SuSE/STABLE/

De mapstructuur voor STABLE staat u toe om de betreffende map voor uw SUSE-product als een installatiebron voor YaST te gebruiken, yum, of smart. Om zo'n bron toe te voegen kunt u ook uw pakketinstallatiehulpmiddel laten wijzen naar het suse-samba.repo bestand beschikbaar in de map voor uw productversie.

Supported SUSE Linux based products are at the moment openSUSE 10.3, 11.0, 11.1, UnitedLinux 1/ SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) 8, SLES 9, SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLE) 10 and factory (= the currently developed product). For some architectures - like ia64, ppc, s390(x) - you find a limited releases subset.

See the changes file for the last changes to the package. Please also check the README file for additional information. The Samba documentation is provided as one common package for all products. The spec files, vendor, and patches (SUSE sources) are available from the src sub directory.

Pre or rc releases

Before a new stable version of Samba is released pre and release candidate (rc) snapshots of the sources are published. RPM packages of these are available from the TESTING subdiretory.

openSUSE Build Service

Samba binary packages are also available from the openSUSE Build Service at download.openSUSE.org.

The STABLE and TESTING projects provide packages for a huge set of Linux distributions (CentOS, Fedora, Mandriva, Redhat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), openSUSE, SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLE)).

In MAINTAINED packages for longer maintained products (SLE) are available.

In the majority of use cases it's required to lower the priority of a newly added repository. The default value is 99 and therefore Samba packages which might be available from the general openSUSE update repository are preferred due to a default priority of 20. The priority value is modifiable from inside the YaST software repositories module or by editing the priority= line in the repo file.
