Hi Matthias,

Here you can see results from the source4/scripting/devel/ldapcmp comparison
tool that ran today build of Samba4 against Windows 2008 (not R2). There are
some interesting things in schema.diff concerning attributes
like: adminDisplayName, adminDescription, systemMayContain !

Differences in letter case for CN, OU etc. I am interested in are gone for
which I thank you!

P.S. Do you think that this diff is not correct and I should run Samba4
against Windows 2008 R2 ??

Thanks!
