Add samba virtual interface

Samba in AD mode provides services that need a separate virtual interface. A free static IP address needs to be chosen from the same range as SME's local network that is outside the DHCP pool.

WARNING: changing this IP address after the domain is provisioned can cause problems and is not supported.

/sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop samba SambaIP a.b.c.d

Set domain administrator password

Provisioning will fail unless a password is chosen that matches the complexity requirements. More details found here. Random Strong Password Generator can be used.

WARNING: make sure to keep a copy of this password and not to modify this key after the domain is provisioned.

/sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop samba Password Blu3Onyx!

Testing
