It's been over a month since the release of samba-4 was announced. Has anybody some experience with it yet? Is it worth while trying it out or should one still stick with the prior individual functional components (samba-3.6, openldap, kerberos, bind)
The network:samba:TESTING/samba has 4.0 pakages. But two issues are known: a) The builds are unusable. There is an extra "lib/samba/" in the 'state directory', 'cache directory', 'usershare path', and 'ncalrpc dir'. It's possible to install the packages but the smb daemon can't be launched. One needs to file a defect report and assign it to me while adding samba-maintainers at suse dot de in cc. Please be this nice and add a pointer to this thread in the list archive to the defect report and reply the bug ID back to this thread too. b) The wanted AD DC funtionality offered via the source4/ sub directory still requires the Heimdaml Kerberos implementation. See https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=794744 for the trouble we're in from an operating system builder point of view.
