[Samba] new DC via clone..

[Joachim Lindenberg]

Hello Rowland,
I have to recognize that asking to compile the distro version is a valid argument.
Hello Michael,
can you please explain, how I can compile Samba as I am using your distro (deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/mjt.key] http://www.corpit.ru/mjt/packages/samba jammy/samba-4.19/)?
Thanks,
Joachim
