[Samba] [PATCH] Re: Samba 4.1 DFS Share only access by administrator

[Garming Sam]

Installing it should just install the binaries, but it would be wise to 
perform a backup.

https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Backup_and_Recovery

Probably one of the main potential issues though is that if you weren't 
building from source originally, is that some of the directory locations 
may be in conflict. So just be wary.


Cheers,

Garming Sam
