Just a general question ahead: I have various issues with Samba-4.2.10 on Debian 8.6 (in combination with NT4-based domain and Win10pro-clients). I assume later samba-releases would help around these issues so I wonder if there are any more recent packages available anywhere. I would like to avoid compiling samba on my own, not because I am not able to do that but in terms of lower maintenance etc Any pointers? Thanks, Stefan

You can do it, but you have to make a lot of changes in the registry of any of your Windows 10 clients. So better switch to AD.> I assume later samba-releases would help around these issues so I wonder > if there are any more recent packages available anywhere.

In the specific case it will be problematic in terms of budget to add a domain-switch now as well. I already tried to upgrade the given domain in a test VM, I always hit small issues and therefore hesitated to roll that domain out in production. Although it shouldn't be that hard, it is a small domain with ~30 users and nothing in it aside from users/passwords as far as I understand. I perfectly understand and agree that the switch would be best, I just haven't done that sucessfully before and have to maintain a productive environment there all the time. This is why I stayed with NT4-domain so far and only switched hardware and OS recently. Now I see problems with joining PCs to the domain, and issues with login scripts etc ... I search and google my way through but it doesn't feel solid so far. Thanks all, nice weekend, Stefan
