I received the following message when I tried to do an install of samba.  I have to assume that the newer version has fond files from a previous version and therefore will not overwrite them.  So I have to also assume that I need to issue rpm -U to do an upgrade.  Does this sound right.  Rather ask the question before committing suicide to my system.

[root at gateway /etc]# rpm -ivh /home/httpd/html/utils/Linux/samba-2.0.7-20000425.i386.rpm
file /etc/codepages/src/codepage_def.852 from install of samba-2.0.7-20000425 conflicts with
 file from package samba-common-2.0.6-9
