Gentoo Samba (round 2)

(Gentoo samba page, attempt #1)

Well, rebuilding the kernel didn't really do anything other then teach me how to rebuild the kernel... I'm still getting the "net: command not found" error when trying to add the box the AD domain. (And I'm not sure what I missed during the installation.)

I have noticed that "emerge samba" installed the 2.2.8a version of Samba instead of version 3... so now I need to find out how to install v3 on gentoo. According to the packages listing for samba, 3.0.2a-r2 is marked as stable as of Apr 29th. (Also useful is the graphical portage browser.)

# emerge sync
# emerge --pretend samba

Ah ha! Now it indicates that it will install net-fs/samba-3.0.2a-r2, but first there's a message that I need to update portage to the latest version.

# emerge search 'portage'

Shows me that I have 2.0.50-r1 and the latest is 2.0.50.r6 and that the size of the download is 219KB.

# emerge portage
# emerge samba
