samba - Feb 2021 - Bitlocker + Samba3 AD

Hello:
I am needing to store the bitlocker keys in an AD Samba, for the Samba4 
version I found information and everything indicates that it will work 
without problems; my query is about Samba3, is it possible to do this? 
or can it only be with an AD DS Samba4?
Regards

Marcos Negrini

If by 'samba3' you are referring to a 3.x.x version of Samba, then I 
wouldn't use it for anything, it will only get security updates and it 
will only get these if the OS backports them.

You may be able to store the bitlocker keys in the NT4-style ldap (if 
this is what you mean), but as bitlocker came after the end of NT4 
domains, you will probably be on your own, especially as the NT4-style 
domains were deprecated when Samba 4.13.0 came out.
