[Samba] Is the samba-dc package on Centos 7 gimped?

[Martinx - ジェームズ]

I'm wondering here... Samba on CentOS doesn't have samba-tool, Samba on
Ubuntu (and on Debian too?) doesn't have CTDB...

So, which Samba package out there is the best one, ever?

I'm running Debian / Ubuntu at my company...

EnterpriseSamba?!

Cheers!
