Not a problem. The "samba4" package in SL 6, and the upstream vendor's
package, is *nasty*. It should have been called something like
"openchange-samba4" because it's a stripped Samba 4 release, designed
to be used as a plugin for OpenChange softwae and under no
circumstances to operate as a an actual Samba server.

I've taken a potshot at backporting the Fedora 18 release of Samba to
SL 6, and it's.... an adventure in dependencies. Just to start with,
the "tdb" release has to be at least version 1.2.10 for Samba 4, and
as soon as you starting basic system libraries, you're in potential
dependency hell.
