1) If you can upgrade to bullseye, that’s highly preffered, and give you the option to move to 4.16.1 in backports. Which is what I recommend.. 2) if you cant upgrade - make sure everything is setup as it should, I already seen one thing that’s whould not be running as I stated above. - then choose which samba version you want and can run. for buster I have 4.13 4.14 and 4.15 available only a big sidenote... these packages DON’T support SSSD. so if SSSD is a must, you must stay within debian official packages.
Heck. This reminds me that.. I didn't provide sssd backport for bullseye, but sssd from bullseye will NOT work with samba from bullseye-backports. This is because samba changed the path for ldb modules, and sssd-provided module can't be found after samba upgrade. This can be fixed in samba though. Providing a symlink from /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/samba/ldb/ pointing to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ldb/plugins/.. - I don't remember off-hand where sssd puts its plugin at. But the new libldb2 Breaks sssd in bullseye, so it can't be fixed after install: you can't install it to begin with. I completely forgot about this. It looks like a new samba bpo release is in order. /mjt
