I don't know the history on how kde-redhat decided shipping a samba package, but you can read the changes in the changelog: * Sat Jul 16 2005 Rex Dieter 3.0.14a-2.1.kde - own /usr/lib/libsmbclient.so.* - fix/remove unowned /usr/sbin/samba (symlink to /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb) * Thu May 05 2005 Rex Dieter 3.0.14a-2.0.kde - --with-shared-modules=idmap_rid (rh bug #156810) - use -pie only if supported (ie, gcc >= 3.2.3) - acl patch from Jeremy Allison I've been running kde-redhat's samba w/o noticing any problems. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
