 Most (all?) Linux distributions include a compiled version of Samba as
 part of the distriution's software repository.  Check to see what your
 distribution makes available.

No major Distributions yet include a full version of Samba 4.0 at this
stage, as far as I'm aware.  (There are major issues for all
distributions in integrating the whole of Samba 4.0, if the distribution
either has an objection to our Heimdal Kerberos bundle or is packaging
Samba 3.6 alongside)

This will change, but using 'samba4' packages from the repositories is
sadly not the simple way to obtain Samba 4.0.

Just installing it on top works most of the time.  If you have problems,
remove the binaries (.so files and files in bin and sbin) and the
re-install.

We handle reading and using the sam.ldb and other files in private/ (and
elsewhere) from older versions as a natural part of running the updated
version.  The WHATSNEW suggests a dbcheck command that can be very
helpful.

Re: [Samba] Update A Compiled Version

2012-12-25 Thread Mark DM
He could be using an older distro that never will have it in the
repos. I think the bigger question is how will he update it once an
update is released if he does compile it, and a I see it that remains
unanswered, as I too share the same question.

I never trust version  X.00, as it is never long before the fixes make it X.01

I've not used Samba since the 3.0 days actually, but the make
install process would upgrade an install in place. I believe it could
revert to the previous version too by unrenaming all of the old files.
