    Hi all
    I'm relatively new to Centos Linux, and |I'm trying to setup a Samba PDC with LDAP backend using one of the excellent guides. (http://www.howtoforge.com/centos-5.x-samba-domain-controller-with-ldap-backend). I struck a problem almost immediately - the second set of instructions actually - as follows:

    rpm -Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-3.noarch.rpm

    Retrieving http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-3.noarch.rpm
    error: skipping http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-3.noarch.rpm - transfer failed - Unknown or unexpected error
    warning: u 0x995b898 ctrl 0x995c6b0 nrefs != 0 (download.fedora.redhat.com http)


    I can actually download this file manually |and did) - but I'm worried that something else is wrong/missing/not setup properly etc. Any ideas anyone?

    You can try to install the manually downloaded file as follows:
    Code:
    rpm -Uvh epel-release-5-3.noarch.rpm
