If you rebuild the samba4 from src.rpm and choose to enable the binary bits for the server, the rpm installs fine. However when you run the provision command, you get an error indicating the need for samba4-python: # /usr/share/samba/setup/provision --realm=testing.pe --domain=testing --adminpass=blah --server-role='domain controller' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/samba/setup/provision", line 33, in <module> import samba ImportError: No module named samba If you enable samba4-python in the build and install it, you get a different error: # /usr/share/samba/setup/provision --realm=testing.pe --domain=testing --adminpass=blah --server-role='domain controller' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/samba/setup/provision", line 192, in <module> ldap_backend_type=opts.ldap_backend_type) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/samba/provision.py", line 981, in provision targetdir) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/samba/provision.py", line 419, in make_smbconf "LOCKDIR_LINE": lockdir_line File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/samba/provision.py", line 233, in setup_file open(f, 'w').write(data) IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/etc/samba4/samba/smb.conf' This is apparently due to samba looking for the /etc/samba4/samba directory instead of just /etc/samba4. If you do mkdir /etc/samba4/samba and rerun provision, you get this: # /usr/share/samba/setup/provision --realm=testing.pe --domain=testing --adminpass=blah --server-role='domain controller' Setting up secrets.ldb unable to load objectguid from /usr/lib/ldb/objectguid.so: /usr/lib/ldb/objectguid.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory WARNING: Module [objectguid] not found unable to load update_keytab from /usr/lib/ldb/update_keytab.so: /usr/lib/ldb/update_keytab.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory WARNING: Module [update_keytab] not found Setting up the registry Setting up templates db Setting up idmap db unable to load partition from /usr/lib/ldb/partition.so: /usr/lib/ldb/partition.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory WARNING: Module [partition] not found unable to load show_deleted from /usr/lib/ldb/show_deleted.so: /usr/lib/ldb/show_deleted.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory WARNING: Module [show_deleted] not found unable to load extended_dn_out_ldb from /usr/lib/ldb/extended_dn_out_ldb.so: /usr/lib/ldb/extended_dn_out_ldb.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory WARNING: Module [extended_dn_out_ldb] not found unable to load linked_attributes from /usr/lib/ldb/linked_attributes.so: /usr/lib/ldb/linked_attributes.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory WARNING: Module [linked_attributes] not found unable to load subtree_delete from /usr/lib/ldb/subtree_delete.so: /usr/lib/ldb/subtree_delete.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory WARNING: Module [subtree_delete] not found unable to load subtree_rename from /usr/lib/ldb/subtree_rename.so: /usr/lib/ldb/subtree_rename.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory WARNING: Module [subtree_rename] not found unable to load password_hash from /usr/lib/ldb/password_hash.so: /usr/lib/ldb/password_hash.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory WARNING: Module [password_hash] not found unable to load kludge_acl from /usr/lib/ldb/kludge_acl.so: /usr/lib/ldb/kludge_acl.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory WARNING: Module [kludge_acl] not found unable to load samldb from /usr/lib/ldb/samldb.so: /usr/lib/ldb/samldb.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory WARNING: Module [samldb] not found unable to load objectclass from /usr/lib/ldb/objectclass.so: /usr/lib/ldb/objectclass.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory WARNING: Module [objectclass] not found unable to load extended_dn_in from /usr/lib/ldb/extended_dn_in.so: /usr/lib/ldb/extended_dn_in.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory WARNING: Module [extended_dn_in] not found unable to load extended_dn_store from /usr/lib/ldb/extended_dn_store.so: /usr/lib/ldb/extended_dn_store.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory WARNING: Module [extended_dn_store] not found unable to load anr from /usr/lib/ldb/anr.so: /usr/lib/ldb/anr.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory WARNING: Module [anr] not found unable to load ranged_results from /usr/lib/ldb/ranged_results.so: /usr/lib/ldb/ranged_results.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory WARNING: Module [ranged_results] not found unable to load rootdse from /usr/lib/ldb/rootdse.so: /usr/lib/ldb/rootdse.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory WARNING: Module [rootdse] not found paged_request:Unable to register control with rootdse!

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 11 development cycle. Changing version to '11'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 11. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '11'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 11's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 11 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-06-25. Fedora 11 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
