samba - Apr 2009 - Updating samba4 from git

Hi folks,

I have a samba4 server, which is acting as AD DC for a small domain. The
whole setup is based on version 4.0.0alpha8-GIT-7fc8086 on freebsd.

Since the samba process is core dumping several times a day, I want to
update to the newest code in the tree. 

How can I do this, without loosing all the data in my AD?

Regards,
Olli

7fc8086 is not *that* old. You might be better off first
posting a backtrace of the problem.

Because your tree is so recent, you should just need to rebuild, but
simply not re-provision.  It will use the existing database.

That said, as Volker points out, because your tree is so recent, it
probably won't help anyway.  Could you please provide a backtrace?
Almost certainly the bug is still there.
