Hi Andrew. I'm really sorry for all these what must to you seem clear
ideas with obvious answers, but this really is the stuff that end users
need to know and are confused about.
Could you give a quick [Y/N] sort of reply to these?
1. If I run the samba binary, I cannot have a 3.x smb.conf.
2. Let's say I've built Samba4 and I want to use a 3.x smb.conf. Do I do
this: start smbd, nmbd and winbindd from /usr/local/samba/sbin.
3. if [ $2 == "yes" ] I'm back to a plain old 3.x and I do not have AD
possibilities.
3. By running samba, I'm already running smbd and winbind.
4. Do you plan to prevent users using samba (the one at the moment which
works so well with s3fs aa fileserver) as a one box solution to AD and
fileserver?
Cheers,
Steve
