I'm setting up a debian squeeze file server with NFS mounted home directories and authentication via ldap. Now I want to give Windows users access to those same home directories. I thought I'd try samba4. I figure I have nothing to lose since this is a virtual machine and if I don't like the results, I can just restore from a snapshot. Its not a production machine yet.

I'd prefer to install from debian packages because that will make the upgrade to samba4 seameless once samba4 is in the stable repository. If I install from a tarball, its probably not going to install stuff where debian likes it. But I figure that even a package from experimental will install most stuff where it belongs in debian. I've installed packages from experimental & unstable on systems running debian stable before but this time it doesn't work. Blow is my sources.list and a screen cap of the output from the apt-get attempt:

# Sources.list
deb http://debian.mirrors.tds.net/debian/ experimental main
deb http://debian.mirrors.tds.net/debian/ unstable main
# end sources.list

# apt-get install -fy samba4
