Hallo, Andrew,

Du meintest am 11.08.12:

>> In Samba3, I have full rfc2307 compliance via winbind where all
>> attributes can be obtained from AD.
>>
>> In Samba4 I only have partial rfc2307 compatibility with:
>> idmap_ldb:use rfc2307 = yes
>> uidNumber and gidNumber can be obtained from AD but
>> uinxHomeDirectory and loginShell are missing.

[...]

Sorry - that sounds ugly.
I prefer using samba as a combined system for SOHO (especially for  
schools). And working with several servers (especially virtual servers)  
is not attractive for someone who looks for the server as a second or  
third job, beneath his/her main job.

Viele Gruesse!
Helmut
