Hai, 

I have a test version available for debian stretch. 

Please take note of the following. 

A clean samba install..

apt-get install samba  works fine.
apt-get install samba winbind wil fail. 

A samba upgrade. Any version to 4.9.x 
apt-get upgrade  ( only samba installed, works fine ) 
apt-get upgrade  ( samba + winbind  installed, fails ) 

In both cases the solution is simple, remove winbind. 

If someone can test this also, i think we need to report a bug here in detecting
the default settings.

And Again, DONT USE THESE IN PRODUCTION YET! 

Install steps. 
wget -O - http://apt.van-belle.nl/louis-van-belle.gpg-key.asc | apt-key add -
echo "deb http://apt.van-belle.nl/debian stretch-experimental main contrib
non-free" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/van-belle.list
apt-get update

I noticed the List message : [Samba] 4.8.5 + TimeMachine = Disk identity changed
on every connect, cannot backup
So the 4.9.x version on my repo are TimeMachine enabled. ;-) 

Again, please test above steps, if we see more of these is sure a but in the
detection of settings.


Greetz, 

Louis

Hi Louis,
do you read my post about Timemachine  ? I found solution there is 
absolutely necessary  compile samba --enable-spotlight to get TimeMachine
working. Do you did  this ?

         Regards
                         Dan

Hai Daniel,

Yes yes.. As you can see in my change log. 
( found here,
http://downloads.van-belle.nl/samba4/Buildlogs/stretch-experimental/ )
>From my changelog. 
samba (2:4.9.0+dfsg-1.1nmu~deb9) stretch; urgency=medium . 
* Non-maintainer upload. 
* Rebuild from Debian stretch from Debian Experimental 
* Bump build-depends cmocka 1.1.2 
* enabled --enable-spotlight to make TimeMachine work 
* d/control added tracker libtracker-sparql-1.0-dev libtracker-miner-1.0-dev
needed for TimeMachine

So its all there. 
If your able to test this, would be great, i dont have an "apple" here
to test this.

Greetz, 

Louis
