I've spent the last week working full-time on fixing the LSA and SAMR
tests to pass against Samba4, and I've written new tests to check basic
partition behaviour.  I'm happy to write more tests, but I need
something more specific than 'I think there is still much more to this'
to aim at.  Do you have any specific concerns I can turn my attention
to?

I would still like to try and get a working demo of remote LDAP use,
using committed code, into the Samba4 tree, and activate it (using local
databases) by default.  I'm hoping to do so in the next couple of weeks.

Thanks,

Andrew Bartlett
