Did you try Samba 4? There is RC5 out (RC 6 and final release following this year according to plan:-) I am very keen to use it but am a bit shy to try because of the ongoing changes. It looks as the end result may be a mix of "old" samba3 and "new" samba4 binaries, and it may not even clear yet what to choose at the end. The information about support for external LDAP is conflicting. A (probably outdated?) wiki page states that external LDAP will not be supported - while people on the technical mailing list seem to run it and contribute. I also cannot find out whether I can extend the schema of the internal server to suit other needs (e.g. a mail server). Using FreeBSD and ZFS adds to the complexity from my side.. I may give it a try next week if I find the time. I am keen to replace the running samba3 server and establish a new samba4 server running as an AD server as well.
