I read in Samba's web site that SWAT is a GUI for Samba's CFG file - so I downloaded it but RPM fail to install it because liblber & libldap are required.

In http://rpmfind.net http://rpmfind.net/ I found files relevant for Mandrake but not for FC2 which I use. What should I do now? Is it safe/ok to use libs compiled for other distributions? Or is there another solution?
Do yourself a favour and don't use any RPM from "wildlife".
Another thing that bother me is why doesn't RPM go and take the needed files automatically ? I mean all the information is there: the names, the version..
That is not the task of a packet manager. Use yum or up2date or apt (which is not part of Fedora Core, but available through 3rd party repositories).
