The current script samba_backup from samba-4.1.13 still only processes
ldb files with tdbbackup, but simply tars the tdb files.
Also there is a newer version with several other (but not this) bugs
fixed on
https://git.samba.org/?p=samba.git;a=blob_plain;f=source4/scripting/bin/samba_backup;hb=master
Why are these fixes not in samba-4.1.13 ?
