I had samba-3.0.14anb1 installed from binary package. Jan.2006 I tried t=

update

	# pgk_add -u  =

'ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/3.0/cobalt/All/samba

but the system couldn't remove the old package. Then I tried to update b=
y  =

compiling myself from pkgsrc, but

	# make install

failed, because an older version was already installed.

	# pkg_delete samba

didn't help either. Subsequently I removed everythng from /var/db that I=

could identify as pertaining somehow to samba (not very professional, I =
 =

admit). Still I couldn't make install - sorry I don't remember the  =

errormessage.
Finally I downloaded the then-current sourcecode from samba.org and

	# ./configure && make && make install

gave me a working installation, but didn't generate an appropriate entry=
  =

in the packages-database.
Now I'd like to get back on the track of updating via the package  =

collection.

Thomas
