hi, just stumbled across this since i was looking at samba4

just rm/mv smb.conf which is installed by the older samba packages at the same 
time as samba4.

so apt-get install samba4: err
rm /etc/samba/smb.conf
apt-get install samba4

now, in relation to this error : 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba4/+bug/832465/comments/12
suggests:
/etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
127.0.1.1 svrwebdev.letsxchange.nl svrwebdev
/etc/hostname
svrwebdev.letsxchange.nl


which fixes the same problem for other people.

there seems to be two traps people are falling into. one old smb.conf they want 
migrated with bad options, fresh smb.conf they don't need and samba4 should 
ignore or have the default for the old samba packages corrected.

the default local domain is usually a single prefix .local .config etc. This 
also seems to be a problem for samba4, which wants lan.config  local.lan etc, 
due to the AD DNS type prefixing.

now i installed without changing the DNS files as advised above(but using a 
local.lan as the local dns prefix), i'm not 100% everything is working, but i 
will show the relevant output incase just setting a correct internal dns / 
hostname is not the same as hostname/hosts fixes above.

Adding DomainDN:   DC=local,DC=lan
Creating CN=MicrosoftDNS,CN=System,DC=local,DC=lan
Server Role : domain controller
Hostname:   correct
DNS Domain: local.lan
NetBIOS Domain: WORKGROUP < m$ default? set it to DNS Domain, without the 
prefix?
DOMAIN SID: generated correctly.
Admin password: really secure.

so in closing, only smb.conf removal seems to be required as well as local.lan 
style dns prefix instead of just single .local 
Please correct me if I am wrong, and at least it seems the fixes are trivial.
