On the IBM web site they have version 4.3.8. I have not tested this IBM package as yet. Another site that has compiled versions of samba is http://www.bullfreeware.com/ I do not know if the packages on this site have been compiled with AD support or as AD-DC's. You can use smbd -b to find out what configure options samba was built with. I used to do my own compilation/builds of samba but I have not been able to successfully build a version since 4.0.6. If anyone knows the tricks required to be able to build the recent samba 4 versions on AIX 7.1 please let me know.

For AIX to become a supported platform again, someone needs to take care. As a first step, IBM could provide continuous access to a development box somewhere. This won't magically fix anything, but if someone reports a problem then this will make it vastly easier to just take a quick look. Next step would be to do daily builds to report problems early.

We have 4ge programs running on AIX. The output files from these programs need to be read from Windows desktops and servers. ________________________________________ From: samba <samba-bounces at lists.samba.org> on behalf of Reindl Harald <h.reindl at thelounge.net> Sent: Tuesday, May 31, 2016 6:35 PM To: samba at lists.samba.org Subject: Re: [Samba] Samba on AIX - Active directory Am 31.05.2016 um 23:36 schrieb Rob Lee:> 3.4.3many years out of support and frankly i forgot when i faced the last machine not running samba4 - what's the purpose of running AIX these days on a fileserver?> ________________________________________ > From: Volker Lendecke <Volker.Lendecke at SerNet.DE> > Sent: Tuesday, May 31, 2016 2:51 PM > To: Rob Lee > Cc: samba at lists.samba.org > Subject: Re: [Samba] Samba on AIX - Active directory > > On Tue, May 31, 2016 at 06:32:51PM +0000, Rob Lee wrote: >> I have many AIX clients running samba from pware.
