> - the samba version you were running before the upgrade

I was following the "samba" packages (not "samba4") so it would have
been from the version currently in testing: 2:3.6.19-1.


> - did you ever install samba4

No, not that I recall.  I suppose it's possible that I did install it
at one time, discovered it didn't work, then reverted.

Yes, I have backups.  I'll recover them and send in a separate email.

Appreciate the warning.
