Hi, I'm trying to upgrade my Debian 10 box (10.11) with latest security fixes on using command line as per below: $ sudo apt-get -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confdef" -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confold" dist-upgrade -y --allow- unauthenticated above command line with APT configuration is supposed to keep the old configuration files in place (without prompting) as per [1] but it is prompting me about locally modified /etc/samba/smb.conf (which is custom configuration in place) [1] https://raphaelhertzog.com/2010/09/21/debian-conffile-configuration-file-managed-by-dpkg/ ....... A new version (/run/samba/upgrades/smb.conf) of configuration file /etc/samba/smb.conf is available, but the version installed currently has been locally modified. What do you want to do about modified config file smb.conf? ...... Does somebody know where is the glitch or i'm doing something wrong or missing something obvious? thank you! Regards, Jaikumar
