Correct that is the real raspbian repo.

Well, when i started in these builds i couldnt get armhf to build ( tried the crossbuild first )
And i was able to make a build setup with qemu and im using that atm.
And as soon im have the time, im changing one of my build server to run crosscompile,
which makes it all way faster and more easy for me to build.
Now its all separated OS-ARH-.. Etc.. Its getting to much time consuming atm with current work at the office.

Yes, if you now use raspbian-buster-samba411, there is a small difference in these.
I cant recall the exact change there but you should be able to run samba also on rapsbian with repo buster-samba412 
Which includes armhf builds already. 

If you can test it, would be great.
