Description Lalatendu Mohanty 2013-10-31 15:34:07 EDT

Description of problem:

samba-common-3.6.9-160.6.el6rhs.x86_64 is creating smb.conf and smb.conf.rpmsave when it is installing for first time. That means if we install RHS U1 ISO, you will find smb.conf and smb.conf.rpmsave files present in /etc/samba. Where as it should be only smb.conf file as it is new install and there is no way user can have some settings in it.

The root cause of this issue is , while we are creating the .rpmsave file in the %post section of spec file , we are not checking if it is first time install or not.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

samba-common-3.6.9-160.6.el6rhs.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install RHSS-2.1-20131031.n.0
2.
3.

Actual results:


Expected results:

Comment 2 Lalatendu Mohanty 2013-12-24 05:16:08 EST

Checked with samba-common-3.6.9-167.8.el6rhs.x86_64. The fresh install of samba-common is not creating rpmsave file.
# ls /etc/samba/
lmhosts  rhs-samba.conf  smb.conf  smbusers

Hence marking it verified.
