Samba 4 support

[J.Witvliet at mindef.nl]

Indeed,

At FOSDEM, two years ago (or is it already three) at de samba-devroom they say that with samba4 you could do a seamless switch from Microsoft-AD to samba4,  and back.
All major distro's fail to do so, because of the HEIMDAL / MIT issue ...

It looks like this issue is more difficult to solve than the transition to system.

Subject: Samba 4 support

I was asking about Samba 4 on the Samba list and got the following response about Fedora and Samba4:

"If you look thru previous posts to this forum you will see that Samba 4 uses Heimdal Kerberos libraries , while Fedora uses MIT kerberos libraries, so you need to recompile Samba 4 from scratch will all the appropriate dependencies.  I have not done this. Samba 4 as an AD DC includes its own LDAP server."

So what is the story?  Does Fedora work for a Samba AD?

Though, at this point, I am looking very strongly at staying with an NTDomain setup.  I am getting strong recommendations for AD being a separate system from the file server, and I only want one system.
