[Samba] Old Samba 3.x server as a Samba 4 AD member.

[mathias dufresne]

What are the role of these old Samba? File servers or domain controllers?

If they are file servers plugging them into AD domain should only change
their user database.  You should think to upgrade your Samba version on
these systems too, I'd say, as Samba4 can do everything Samba3 was doing.
