If you ran './configure' and got something like this: 'configure' 
finished successfully (1m2.432s)

Then ran 'make' and got something like this: 'build' finished 
successfully (9m3.667s)

Then ran 'make install' and got something like this: 'install' finished 
successfully (18.243s)

I would expect to find Samba in /usr/local/samba

Problem for you, you will find all of Samba in /usr/local/samba and this 
means the code to produce anything Samba can produce (AD DC, NT4-style 
PDC, domain member etc) and it is huge, is this what you are looking for ?
