Please get your facts straight!! Having said that, if you do not need Samba AD support there are newer samba rpms available for FREE with Centos. if you need something newer than 4.2.10 on c-6 or 4.4.4 on c-7 or you need Samba AD support, I would suggest you download the src tarball from https://download.samba.org/pub/samba/stable/samba-4.6.6.tar.gz and build it yourself. It is trivial to build provided you follow the instructions @ https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Build_Samba_from_Source. https://wiki.samba.org provides a wealth of information for configuring samba 4 In addition, if you have problems the people on the samba mailing go out of their way to help troubleshoot problems.
