The problem with Samba AD in a container or Samba in container is that Samba isn’t designed to be run in a temporary environment. You could run it in a LXC container but anything beyond that will break things in the short or long term.
I figured you could get around some of the storage limitations with something like persistent volume claims. I’m testing it out at the moment. I am a big fan of LXC.
I see a few people have created docker Samba Containers and I’m giving them a whirl. Can’t say much for stability but I think it’s an interesting experiment.
I know in the past smb server didn’t work in LXC containers because certain kernel modules caused conflicts.
There is Samba AD but that will very much not run in kubernetes
I’m fooling around with a few samba AD docker containers. I ask because I’ve phased almost everything else out of my lab environment.

A man can dream.
