I'm not sure why I need that. As I stated, I'm a little new to Samba and AD. For some reason, my research suggests that to get AD, I need Samba 4.

We are replacing Netware with Samba as a file services device. steve On 4/22/2014 9:59 AM, m.roth@xxxxxxxxx wrote: > Am 18.04.2014 17:49, schrieb Steve Campbell: >> I'm a little new to Samba when used as more than just a simple place to >> mount a single user to a single share, but we're now getting ready to >> replace our Netware servers with Samba, and I guess that means Active >> Directory DC. >> >> As I read more and more about this beast, I keep finding pages that >> indicate the samba4 rpms supplied with the Centos/RH distribution are >> not the full version and that I should get them from either samba.org or >> certain other sources that provide complete versions.
