[Samba] Samba 3 to 4 migration

Fri Dec 8 04:24:17 UTC 2017

Hello everyone,

We have a samba 3.5 environment based on Ubuntu Server. We are looking at
migrating to Samba 4 AD and incorporate Windows Server.  From my limited
research and test I've come up with the following list to do. Can you
please advise if it is ok.

- Run up a new Samba 4 Stable (4.7.3 , I think) VM on Ubuntu 17.10
- Install all the prereqs as per the Samba Wiki
