Thanks!

yes, I think so. There is nothing Samba specific in ctdb (though the
reverse is not true) so I think it is probably best to have two
separate packages.

yes. In the setup we are testing at the moment we have the following
files in shared storage:
- all of private dir
- idmap:db
- smb.conf
- cluster_nodes.txt
- cluster_addresses.txt
- public_addresses.txt
The first two are via smb.conf options, so no need for special
handling in spec files. For the moment smb.conf is a symlink to shared
storage. The 3 ctdb config files can be pointed to by the startup
scripts.
Probably for a Linux system we should have a /etc/sysconfig/ctdb file
which looks something like this:
CLUSTER_NODES=/some/place/cluster_nodes.txt
PUBLIC_ADDRESSES=/some/place/public_addresses.txt
then make the ctdb init script source that file and build the
appropriate command line (also building cluster_addresses.txt, using a
tmp file and mv).
Cheers, Tridge
