[Bug 990945] Re: samba-common doesn't read workgroup from smb.conf

[Jelmer Vernooij]

Hi Abhi,

wrt (1); the realm should usually be the uppercased version of the DNS domain name, not the NetBIOS domain name.
(2) is fixed in newer versions of samba4, those present in quantal.

You can install samba4 as something other than a DC by selecting
"standalone" in debconf. The priority of this question is fairly low at
the moment though, that might explain why you haven't seen it. There is
no particular reason why you would want to run samba4 rather than samba3
as a file server at the moment.
