Error while compiling Samba

[SirRoot]

Im trying to install the latest stable release of Samble but I am recieving errors during the make process.

bin/mergedobj/cli_auth.o: In function `netlogon_creds_copy':
(.text+0xfba): undefined reference to `dom_sid_dup'

Any ideas? Also is there and ezier way to install samba than compiling from source?

EDIT: Forgot to mention i cannot use yum because this computer cannot be connected to the internet.

You could download the rpms from either the rhn after login or from centos/sl/fedora repositories,
copy them to the machine
and install them with yum or rpm

I tried installing a samba and samba-client rpm but I still seem to be missing some things like system-config-samba and the acual samba command.

Just download every rpm with *samba*
In doubt, deinstalling is easy.

Irithori makes a good point. Samba can be tricky because the developers broke up the software into several different RPMS.

For example, you need samba-common regardless if you are going to use Samba as a client or server. samba-client is required to use Samba as a client.

system-config-samba may also be a separate package (was in RHEL 5, not sure about RHEL 6).

BTW, I like SWAT myself (samba-swat package).
