this is just a heads-up that SerNet does provide Samba 4 packages
(including AD DC package) now.
It was told on the fedora user's list that the kerberos
implementation used by Fedora, RHEL and CentOS conflicts with the
samba one, and so Fedora was providing samba4 binaries without AD DC
support. This was related to the use of FreeIPA by Fedora and RHEL.
So I wasn't expecting to see packages with AD DC support for RHEL
and CentOS so soon. Thanks a lot!
But how did you manage the kerberos problem? I see you repo provides
only samba4 packages, and do not replace any other library or daemin
from CentOS and RHEL.
our samba packages use the heimdal that is shipped with s4, we don't use the
system krb libs.
Or would the problem be present only on newer Fedora releases, and
not on RHEL6 (yet)? Would this be related to the fact servnet does
not provide samba4 packages for Fedora, or you simply don't package
anything for Fedora?
theoretically red hat could also ship a s4 ad dc with built in heimdal kdc but
afaik they are working on MIT integration.
Another question: if my CentOS server is using samba3 from sernet
repos, may I upgrade them using sernet samba4? Or should I uninstall
samba3 and do a clean install of samba4, redoing all configuration
manually?
yes, the packages are upgradable from previous sernet packages and also from
the distribution vendor packages.

Hi list, hi Björn,
will it later be possible to use samba4 packages from the distribution
when released, as distribution maintained packages mostly have less
dependency problems or Sernet decides to stop providing binary packages.
Or is the internal structure a bit "proprietary" and the decision to use
your packages not reversibel.
Regards,
Chris
