Hi all. We are starting to use Samba4 as active directory and one of our questions is when a release becomes available in a linux distro. Is it possible to have this information, like version and release date? Thanks! -- André Luiz • Software Engineer CI&T • Collaborate. Innovate.

Samba 4.7 will support the MIT KDC, and during the time, distribution vendors will start providing Samba packages with AD DC capabilities. Fedora 27 [1] will be shipped with a "samba-dc" package that provides Samba AD DC support based on Samba 4.7 and MIT Kerberos. Regards, Marc [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Samba_AD
