[Samba] Success with samba4 ( debian wheezy member server )

[L.P.H. van Belle]

I forgot to mention, im using the sernet-samba packages. 
http://www.enterprisesamba.com/samba  

below also works on ubuntu. 
create an account, and add the samba4 repo for ubuntu. 

What server is the dhcp server and the (Dynamic) DNS server.
windows ? samba ?  other ? 

and really a "server" with a dhcp adres. yes it can be done. 
but you should put a "mac"/ip reservation in the dhcp so your server 
always gets the same ip.
