Hello and welcome to LinuxQuestions,

First of all, it's best to use the package manager that comes with your distribution and which will resolve any dependencies automatically instead of installing from RPM files. That should only be necessary if you have some specific needs, like latest version that's not available in any repository for example. It also is a good idea to mention what distro you are using so that we can give you a more adequate answer.

Looking forward to your participation in the forums. Have fun with Linux.

Kind regards,

Eric

Which Linux distro are you using? I do this on Fedora 17 from the BASH terminal.

Answer 'Y' to the install request.

I think you use yum. Try this from the bash command prompt.

yum list installed

If that works, do a

Code:

yum install samba-client

I ran this as root on Fedora 17.

Code:

yum deplist samba-client

in order to install software on RHEL6 you HAVE to have a red hat support contract
for the desktop
https://www.redhat.com/apps/store/desktop/
and if you have to ask then you WILL NEED the "Standard Subscription (1 year)" for $299 / per year

or

install one of the FREE rebuilds
CentOS 6.3
or
ScientificLinux 6.3

--- red hat ---
once you have activated your red hat account
( there is a very handy desktop link to do this )

you then can update your install and install samba

Code:

su -
--- your root password when asked ---
yum update
---- a new kernel will most likely be installed so ----
reboot

then

Code:

su -
--- your root password when asked ---
yum install samba-client

If you have an ISO of RHEL 6 or an CD then you can easily create a repository. Reply if you have this.
