Running samba4 in production for nearly 3 years now, no big big problem 
(well a couple of quite annoying bugs in the first 6 months, but since 
then it's quite smooth).


Do a daily backup of your samba provision (use 
scripting/bin/samba_backup) and put a script to monitor the state of 
samba4's ldap (ie:


 while true; do
ldbsearch -H ldap://localhost '(samaccountname=administrator)'
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
do_restart
fi
sleep 60
)

As for the moment we only start 1 ldap task if the samba process which 
is holding this task is killed (because of segfault) you'll find 
yourself without ldap which is not very a good thing ...

Yes, use the current GIT tree.  We hope to make an alpha14 release soon,
but there isn't any particular value in waiting for it. 

We do have a number of production sites running Samba, including with
multiple servers and migrated domains from Windows.   A single DC
install is very simple in comparison :-). 

You are free (indeed, it's better) to ask questions about Samba4 on the
samba-technical list, or join us on #samba-technical on
irc.freenode.net.

The code is still alpha, but that mostly means that we need you to work
with us closely when something goes wrong, so we can fix it up or work
around it as quickly as possible.

I did it, but be aware no dfs is working at this time and no real printer
issues.
To have dfs or printer issuses you want to have a recent samba 3 as domain
member serving this
Services.
Look at my read. It may help you: HOWTO samba4 centos5.5 named dnsupdate

Good luck

Betreff: [Samba] samba4 AD controller, production

Hello, list,

Anyone running a recent version of samba4 as the only one AD controller in
the domain, *in production*? If so, what is your overall experience?

I am going to make such an install for a site with some 50 users (and
frankly speaking, I am frightened ... so give me some courage!)

Would you recommend me to go ahead and do it? Latest release?
Any feedback is more that appreciated (really)!

Thanks in advance,
Yassen
