If you are going to provision as an AD DC, then you need samba-tool, 
'which samba-tool' will tell you where it is. You can use something 
similar to find the samba daemon 'which samba', once you have found 
this, '/path/to/samba -b' will tell you where everything else is, but I 
thought that the sernet packages installed like the ubuntu packages.
