If you mean, have I created the symlink from /lib/libnss_winbind.so.2 to 
/usr/local/samba/lib/libnss_winbind.so.2 and added winbind to 
/etc/nsswitch.conf, then yes.

I was only having trouble joining when I tried out something Steve 
suggested, joining is normally no trouble.

which net
/usr/local/samba/bin/net

/usr/local/samba/bin/net -V
Version 4.0.0beta8-GIT-e39cce4

net -V
Version 4.0.0beta8-GIT-e39cce4

I have also checked every dir in my path, and it is only installed once. 
I removed all traces of S3 before
compiling S4.

Thanks for the help.
