Well if you are going to be like that about it, travel back in time 
about 2 months, install debian 7.5, install samba 4.1.9 from backports 
and provision, return to now and update to 4.1.11, all you have to do 
now, is wait until 4.1.13 gets into backports :-D :-D

PS, I cannot recommend using Ubuntu 14.04.
