Samba 4.0.17 Available for Download

[Stuart Naylor]

Great news.

Just wondered if you guys had a good reference point for compiling for the noob?

I will have to google again to tag the version in git as my memory is generally vague.

The only things I generally get confused on is how to change the output folders so they are distro specific.

I have just been disabling apparmor and selinux but if anybody has some sample profiles it would be great.

Basically I have been using the Sernet binaries as my compile skills are not great.

If its a make or make install then great but I sort of struggle from that point.

If there was a little bit more info on distro specific compiles then perhaps I would compile and report back more often.

I think I will stick with the Sernet Binaries as I am expecting the compile to be good so that is I get any bugs then I am not reporting compile mistakes, conflicts....

Many thanks Sernet Guys as I will wait for 4.0.17 and I presume 4.1.17 will be soon?

With the Sernet binaries are you going to release a repo that has all the logging turned upto the max?

It would be great if others provided other binaries for a point of reference. I think I can get involved in noob feedback and staying away from compiling will make my input of higher quality.
