Hello all,

I'm having problems using the "samba-tool" tool. From the documentation
i've read, the following command 'should' work. Apparently i'm missing
something.

####

[root at vmhost bin]# pwd
/usr/local/samba/bin
[root at vmhost bin]# ./samba-tool domain provision --realm=mytest.local
--domain=MYTEST --adminpass='welcome' --server-role='dc'
Usage: samba-tool domain <subcommand>

Available subcommands:
  classicupgrade    - Upgrade from Samba classic (NT4-like) database to
Samba AD DC database.
  dcpromo           - Promotes an existing domain member or NT4 PDC to an
AD DC
  demote            - Demote ourselves from the role of Domain Controller
  exportkeytab      - Dumps kerberos keys of the domain into a keytab
  info              - Print basic info about a domain and the DC passed as
parameter
  join              - Joins domain as either member or backup domain
controller
  level             - Raises domain and forest function levels
  passwordsettings  - Sets password settings
  samba3upgrade     - Upgrade from Samba classic (NT4-like) database to
Samba AD DC database.
ERROR: No such subcommand 'provision'

####

A little background. Here is how i got to this point:

####

 wget http://download.samba.org/samba/ftp/samba4/samba-4.0.0beta8.tar.gz
 tar xzf samba-4.0.0beta8.tar.gz
 cd samba-4.0.0beta8
 cd source4
 ./configure
 make
 make install

####

Ta,
