What you cannot do is conclude because your AD has a uidNumber field that it is operating at 2003R2 or later. That is fundamentally flawed logic. > So, if it was first installed 'de-facto' in 2003R2 and Samba 4 has it as > standard, then samba4 should be 'level 2003R2', but then again it seems > to be using the 2008 schema (at least that is the earliest I can find in > /usr/local/samba/share/setup/ > Like I said flawed logic, because plenty of 2003 and 2000 servers had uidNumbers in their schema. What is important is not what the schema is, but what on the wire protocol version that your AD controller is compatible with. I presume that if Samba4 is reporting it is a 2003 server it is because there was some extension of the AD controller protocol by Microsoft in 2003R2 that Samba4 does not support. JAB. -- Jonathan A.
