Hey Folks, Anyone out there have experience with 'making' Samba on SuSE 7.0 authenticate to a 'real' (and I use that term lightly) Windows NT PDC? Any info would be GREAT...

Don't get me wrong, so far I'm fairly pleased overall with SuSE 7.1. But issues lilke the kernel upgrades via yast, suse rpms and the suse ftp have me very frustrated at times. And alsa modules seem to be very fickle. One of the things that frustrates me is that it seems that SuSE tries to discourage kernel upgrades and since there are issue that someone might need to know that are specific to the SuSE distro in regards to a kernel upgrades and config - the lack of any good docs or SuSE kernel HOWTOs only exacerbates my frustrations! If there is any info specific to these types of upgrades I'd really like to know where they are. RTFM is hard to do when you can't find any FM to R. :-) On Wednesday 18 April 2001 09:41, Mike wrote:

Why is it that when ever I install anything from the suse ftp site that it seems broken or breaks something else. From what I can tell by reading the other posts on the list, I'm not the only one to have this problem. Thought that using rpms from the suse site would mean that they would be compatible and tailored to the distro - guess not!
Such as?? So far I've picked up most of the rpm's I need from the update service. I've also done the 2.4.2 kernel update, gone from kde2.0.1 to 2.1.0 to 2.1.1 without any problems.
Of course, it could just be the luck of the irish.. ;-) One little quirk that I did notice is that when doing to kernel upgrade, it removes the modules directory from /lib/modules. Thus your old kernel doesn't work right. I thought I'd done something strange so I 'downgraded' to the old kernel in hopes it would put the modules back in. It did. But removed the 2.4.2 modules. Still haven't figured that one out. But I don't use the old 2.4.0 kernel anymore, so I haven't gotten into it.
