samba:install-as-member

Install Samba binaries for a Member Server (file server)

This will install Samba from your current repository. Debian does not upgrade Samba to a major release until a new Debian version is released. Therefore, it is advisable to install from Debian backports or even use Michael Tokarev's Samba repositories. (Michael is the official Debian Samba packager/maintainer for Debian.)

If you want to use a more recent version of the Samba software, see the instructions for either Using backports or Using Michael Tokarev's repos.

Once you have decided and configured which version to use, then:

apt-get update && apt-get install --no-install-recommends   krb5-user krb5-config  libldb2 libnss-winbind libpam-winbind libwbclient0 python3-ldb python3-samba samba samba-common samba-common-bin samba-dsdb-modules samba-libs samba-vfs-modules winbind
  • Remember to use ‘-t bookworm-backports’ if you are installing from backports.
  • You may be asked about the Kerberos realm: mad.caponato.es is the DNS domain name, and MAD.CAPONATO.ES is the Kerberos realm name. Note that the Kerberos configuration file will be replaced / updated later.
