[Samba] Samba 4.7.0
Morning , People from Samba Subscriber list will start asking themselves as to what kind of person is this ? Every morning is him with questions . Please forgive me of my ignorance . I 'm a newbee as far as Samba is concern. As mentioned yesterday ,and thanks so much for the respond I got , more especially Rowland who was so helpful to me to arrive where I 'm right now. In short and straight to the point. I would like a Sparc Oracle server to be as a Client running Solaris 11 to have SAMBA installed on it. Having a Windows platform that runs checks and calculates statistics but it requires data from Sparc Oracle server in order to do this. But for now temporarily while waiting for the user to supply with the Windows platform server. I want to use my Laptop as a windows platform server. How is the configuration of samba should it be while using the laptop as the windows platform. My laptop is running Windows 10 Pro. I need the step to step configure this Regards Ratanang This e-mail is classified C2 - Vodacom Restricted - Information to be used inside Vodacom but it may be shared with authorised partners. �This e-mail is sent on the Terms and Conditions that can be accessed by Clicking on this link https://webmail.vodacom.co.za/tc/default.html "

I would have thought that by using packages for your OS, this would already have been sorted for you. Rowland

You are quite correct, the error message does say you have a missing dependency, in this case, you need the Solaris 11 version of libgnutls-dev. You will need to install this and then re-run configure, if you then get any more failures, you will need to identify and install any other missing packages. Whilst you might be able to build the Samba software, you will not get much further if your filesystem doesn't understand POSIX ACLs, the provision of a DC will fail. You will probably also get problems with the compiler if it isn't similar to the Linux compiler. If you do get it to build, you will find Samba in /usr/local/samba Good luck Rowland

The OP probably doesn't actually want the AD DC.
