Posted by Hemos on from the good-thinking dept.

Agh writes "German company SerNet (founded amongst others by Samba-Team member Volker Lendecke) has a portal for precompiled packages for Suse's and RedHat's Enterprise Distributions (x86 32 and 64bit, s390, and zSeries) as well as Debian sarge and woody: http://www.enterprisesamba.com/ (Heise story here: http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/57389) Offered is always the newest stable version of Samba (currently 3.0.11)."

    Do Redhat and Suse not already include Samba? Why is such a portal necessary?

    They merely point you to the packages for Woody that are available on the samba site.
    Not that there's anything inherently wrong with that, but there you go.
