[Samba] Option configure

[Achim Gottinger]

Just backported 4.4.5 from debian sid to jessie. samba.service is masked 
there. If running as an fileserver the services are started via 
smbd.service,nmbd.service, winbind.service.
There is an samba-ad-dc script which is masked by default.
To get the ad-dc up and running with systemd one has to unmask 
samba-ad-dc.service and mask smbd.service,nmbd.service, winbind.service.

  This is the samba-ad-dc.service script:

[Unit]

Description=Samba AD Daemon

Documentation=man:samba(8) man:samba(7) man:smb.conf(5)

After=network.target

[Service]

Type=notify

NotifyAccess=all

PIDFile=/run/samba.pid

LimitNOFILE=16384

EnvironmentFile=-/etc/default/samba

ExecStart=/usr/sbin/samba $SAMBAOPTIONS

ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID

[Install]

WantedBy=multi-user.target
