Hi Lucia!

I used that "how-to"
http://www.jeremycole.com/blog/2009/12/01/upgrade-samba-3-0-28a-to-3-4-3-on-ubuntu-8-04-lts/

That worked fine for me with samba 3.4.4 and samba 3.4.5


If you prefer packages - you can add
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/pgquiles/ppa/ubuntu hardy main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/pgquiles/ppa/ubuntu hardy main

to your apt - source list and install the provided 3.4.3 packages.

Please keep in mind that there are differences between 3.0 and 3.4
(tdbsam, ldap-scheme, some config changes)!

Martin
