Rowland, I have seen you state this before that "server services" line within a smb.conf file is not necessary on a DC. I have to ask, and it may have been asked before but, I recently install from source the v4.5.0 and during provisioning samba created that "line" within the smb.conf file. I understand what and why your saying this but, if the line is not needed then why does provisioning a ADDC create the line? -- _______________________________ Bob Wooden of Donelson Trophy

If you provision with the internal dns server, you do not get a 'server services' line in smb.conf, but if you provision with Bind9, you get the first line above. If you provision with the internal dns server and then change to Bind9, you can add either of the two lines above, either will turn off the internal dns server. Rowland

The information is changing and improving as we go. The clear explanation helps. Again, thanks. -- _______________________________ Bob Wooden of Donelson Trophy

"If you are running Samba 4.2 or later, you can disable the |samba| internal |winbindd| daemon and switch to the recommended |winbind| daemon.
