I'm using it only for authentication of services on a Mac OS X server at the moment. No workstations, file/print sharing etc. It was a bit of trouble getting the user accounts migrated from Open Directory, but after that hurdle it's been very little trouble. I'm copying samba-technical, since you've not received any other answers on the samba list and the samba-technical list is, for now, still the place to report success/failure/etc. with Samba 4. -- Michael Wood <[email protected]> -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
