I *was* using a symbolic link in /usr/bin called "samba" that was pointing to /usr/local/samba/sbin/samba - this was the only way I found so far that I could avoid typing the whole command path every time - probably because I still can't see a way to persistently and globally add entries to the path variable (every time I tried this previously, if I logged out and logged in as a different user, my changes to the path were missing, and wouldn't even reappear when I logged back in as myself).

Hi, try this

# Set the path in /etc/profile.d/samba4.sh
echo "PATH=\$PATH:/usr/local/samba/bin:/usr/local/samba/sbin" > 
/etc/profile.d/samba4.sh
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/samba/bin:/usr/local/samba/sbin
