What distro are you using?Slackware(64-14.1), so I am used to re-building things to my liking :) Janis P.S. If the client still wants _AD_ DC - can i just build fileserver using the same samba4 build I have for DC (I re-built it after installation of heimdal 1.5.2), join it to the domain and have the shares on FS browsable? Any howtos/hints for such configuration? For the purpose of finding the best solution I already have virtual network of 4 virtual machines (ADDC + 3 types of clients), virtual file server will be fifth.

From my limited testing, you only need to compile samba4 one way, it is then how you use the binaries that dictates what type of samba server you get. Rowland

Browsing the original Slackware package I can not locate a thing like kinit, for example, while krb5.conf is there OK, but his is not the problem. T
