You seem unfamiliar with how Scientific Linux ships software which is causing you some confusion. Scientific Linux (SL) is built from the git source code that Red Hat puts out for its Enterprise Linux (RHEL). Red Hat does periodic updates to its software on a scale of 1 to 2 times a year but these upgrades may only backport fixes to the current release number or may do a complete upgrade. [When a RHEL release moves from various production stages which RHEL-6 just did, they only backport major fixes.] So if you need SL to ship samba4-4.2.12 then you need to check to see if there are existing bugs on the issues you need fixed in http://bugzilla.redhat.com and also test out whenever RHEL-6.9beta comes out to see if the bug was backported to it. Otherwise you may need to look at Scientific Linux 7 and if it is fixed/updated in SL7.3 > Rupert -- Stephen J Smoogen.
