samba - Sep 2019 - Compile samba github code and flash the build binary to embedded device

Hi Sir/Madam/Miss,

I am a firmware engineer. I would like to implement file sharing between
embedded device and android phone/ios phone/windows.

I download the samba source code from
https://github.com/samba-team/samba/tree/v4-11-stable with version
v4-11-stable.

I follow the instruction from link :
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Build_Samba_from_Source to compile.

I expected the compilation will produce binary files or equivalent file.
But I fail to find it.

Question:
1. How to build the binary files or equivalent file that can flash in the
embedded device?

2. How to flash in the binary files or equivalent file into the embedded
device? Can I do the normal flashing through JTAG tool?

3. How to configure /etc/samba/smb.conf at embedded device? FYI, there is
many of embedded devices need to produce.

Hope can hear from you soon.

Thank you.

Regards,
Ang Hock Leong

Hi All,
May I have some advise on this issue?
Thank you.

If you ran './configure' and got something like this:
'configure'
finished successfully (1m2.432s)

Then ran 'make' and got something like this: 'build' finished 
successfully (9m3.667s)

Then ran 'make install' and got something like this: 'install'
finished
successfully (18.243s)

I would expect to find Samba in /usr/local/samba

Problem for you, you will find all of Samba in /usr/local/samba and this 
means the code to produce anything Samba can produce (AD DC, NT4-style 
PDC, domain member etc) and it is huge, is this what you are looking for ?
