No, they come with the samba package. However, /etc/init.d/samba is a configuration file, and dpkg considers "missing" to be a valid state for a configuration file and will preserve it unless told otherwise. You should have the package in /var/cache/apt/archives/samba_2.2.3a-6_i386.deb, so try the following: dpkg --force-confmiss -i /var/cache/apt/archives/samba_2.2.3a-6_i386.deb Cheers, -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
