Hi,

I have a problem. The prerequisites are:

* Vanilla Ubuntu 10.04 install
* Followed the http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/HOWTO 

In step 4, after running the command:

./source4/setup/provision --realm=samdom.example.com --domain=SAMDOM --adminpass=SOMEPASSWORD --server-role='domain controller'

i get the following error when the provisioning run tdbbackup from the script "bin/python/samba/provision/sambadns.py":

The file /home/administrator/source/samba-master/bin/shared/private/libtdb.so does exist.

What can/should I do? I tried this on Ubuntu 11.10 desktop as well, with the exact same result.

Kindest regards,
Mathias
