Upgrading software RPM??

Comment:
I am currently running Red Hat 7.2 (kernel 2.4.7-10). I am also currently running Samba 2.2.1a. I downloaded RPM version Samba-2.2.3a-20020206.i386.rpm from www.samba.org. I tried to upgrade Samba using the command "rpm -Uvh samba-2.2.3a-20020206.i386.rpm" When I run this command I get conflicting errors with the current version of Samba that is installed on my box. Which RPM of Samba do I need to install in order to upgrade the version I am currently running? Also, what does the # 20020206 indicate? Thank you for your help.
