This wiki page will be used to track the integration effort of Samba 4 into SME 9+
G.Zartman Note: At this point, I'm just going to randomly ramble on this wiki page as I work on Samba 4. Once I get some workable pieces, I'll go back and format this page so that it makes more sense.
smb.conf considerations:

There is a long explaintion behind this, but for now, restriction doesn't hurt us.
