I recently setup Ubuntu 10.04 server to act as a NAS. I downloaded the source for smartmontools v5.38 and compiled it successfully. I can run the daemon and the command line tool manually, and the man pages are available though I cannot get smartd to start automatically at boot. I went through the INSTALL file in the source directory to look at all of the included files and I think some of the paths or links are not set properly in default. I wondered if anyone has compiled and installed smartmontools under Ubuntu 10.04 successfully? Since the v5.38 package is available, I might uninstall my compiled attempt and get that. Derek |

I did check for those files after my compile/installation attempt, though neither the /etc/default/smartmontools file or the /etc/smartd.conf files were installed. At first I thought there was a mistake in the documentation. When I checked the compile log, I saw that there was an error in the configuration step involving I think confdefs.h. I am not sure how to uninstall smartmontools after installing from source. Once I do that I can use the most recent package version.
