Copied the list as I guess it will be more interesting for them

 Hello, list,

 Anyone running a recent version of samba4 as the only one AD
 controller in the domain, *in production*? If so, what is your overall
 experience?

 I am going to make such an install for a site with some 50 users (and
 frankly speaking, I am frightened ... so give me some courage!)

Been using it for 8 months now. 3 Samba4 servers and a W2K3R2 and
Samba4 as PDC, no real problems.  Bit more lag than I'd like with
account updates across controllers. DNS can give a few headaches, esp.
if you're not comfortable with BIND. I'm quite comfortable with it for
a reasonbly small deployment.




 Running samba4 in production for nearly 3 years now, no big big
 problem
 (well a couple of quite annoying bugs in the first 6 months, but since
 then it's quite smooth).

 Do a daily backup of your samba provision (use
 scripting/bin/samba_backup) and put a script to monitor the state of
 samba4's ldap (ie:

    while true; do
 ldbsearch -H ldap://localhost '(samaccountname=administrator)'
 if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
          do_restart
 fi
 sleep 60
 )

 As for the moment we only start 1 ldap task if the samba process which
 is holding this task is killed (because of segfault) you'll find
 yourself without ldap which is not very a good thing ...
