Hi Steve & everybody

Well nearly, the Samba4 client is correct, but the smbd daemon is also 
running on the Samba4 DC, I did not start this, the samba daemon did.

List of daemons running on S4 Client:

3131 ?        Ss     0:00 /usr/local/samba/sbin/nmbd -D
  3133 ?        Ss     0:00 /usr/local/samba/sbin/smbd -D
  3134 ?        S      0:00 /usr/local/samba/sbin/smbd -D
  3136 ?        Ss     0:00 /usr/local/samba/sbin/winbindd -D
  3138 ?        S      0:00 /usr/local/samba/sbin/winbindd -D
