samba - Feb 2014 - Best upgrade path from 4.0.0rc5 to 4.1.4

All,

I have a Samba 4 server that is currently running Samba 4.0.0-rc5. It 
looks like the initial install was 4.0.0alpha20 and then upgraded to rc5.

I'm currently using bind_dlz for for my DNS.

What's the cleanest way to upgrade to a 4.1.4 install while retaining my 
data?

Thanks,
Brian

As there were some fixes for directory and SysVol ACLs after 4.0 final, 
I would suggest:

1.) Backup!
2.) Compile the latest version and install over the old one.
3.) # samba-tool dbcheck --reset-well-known-acls
4.) # samba-tool ntacl sysvolreset
5.) # samba-tool dbcheck --cross-ncs --fix
6.) Testing. :-)
