I am still trying to share files with XP (I can see the XP machines from my Fedora but not the other way around).

 

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 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?

 

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..

 

Thanks
