Can you provide the link for me, so i can look at it. Im looking atm to rebuild the debian experimental samba4 back to squeeze or im going to use the sernet packages. I like the sernet appliance packages because of the integrated zarafa schemas. I saw samba4 has mismatch with the debian stable samba3, do you know is this also applies for samba 3.6.6 ( from backports ) Best regards, Louis >-----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- >Van: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] >Namens Andrew Bartlett >Verzonden: woensdag 19 december 2012 23:55 >Aan: Tom McArthur >CC: [email protected] >Onderwerp: [Samba] Limitations in packages of Samba 4.0 >(particularly pre-releases) > >On Fri, 2012-12-14 at 19:05 -0500, Tom McArthur wrote: >> According to the Samba documentation, the manpages are >supposed to be >> installed with Samba.
