[...] But what about people who want to use Samba without ADS, perhaps far away from a Windows environment? It's more simple to configure, it doesn't need specially trained operators. What about "Samba 4 light for SOHO"? I prefer using cifs instead of nfs, p.e., even in a LAN only with Linux clients. And there's no need for an ADS. There's no need for a DNS monster like ISC bind.
