You don't need to change your priorities: as I found out yesterday night
samba-4.x is not yet ready to provide AD-DC services on gentoo.

I found out while researching another issue related to smbclient and
german umlauts (popping up when I run backups with amanda).

I wrote to the samba- and the amanda-users-ml, and bgo:

https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=593486

tl;dr ::

* samba in portage is quite old, 4.2.x is EOL upstream (4.6.rc1 released
already upstream)

* samba in portage does not yet provide the bundled heimdal version that
upstream samba works with (in terms of AD-DC services, other stuff works
with mit-krb5 as well).

* there's a test ebuild which uses that internal heimdal-version, see
Comment 9 in the mentioned bug.

But to me that is too unstable and risky to move a whole Windows domain
to already.

Scratch that.
I am actually using Samba 4.2.11, but using the same config as I did with 
Samba-3.

I am still using using samba3 for my NAS.
Samba4 has been planned for a while, but with it wanting it's own LDAP and tree 
layout, I have a few more things to organise.

Other projects keep getting a higher priority.

[gentoo-user] samba as AD DC on gentoo

2017-01-04 Thread Stefan G. Weichinger 

Do people here run samba-4.x AD DCs on gentoo?

If yes, pls let me know of any traps or so.
Yes, I read the wiki ;-)

I currently prepare the migration of an old NT4-based domain (on a
samba-PDC, gentoo) to AD (other physical box, gentoo as well).

Did something similar last week (but with debian involved) and learned a
whole lot.

As there is no step back as soon as the Windows clients talked to the
AD-DC I prefer to know as much as I can in advance.

Thanks, regards, Stefan
