Bug Description

Sorry for my english.

At packet "samba4-clients" file /usr/bin/net.samba4
in maverick exist http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/i386/samba4-clients/filelist
and natty, oneiric is not - http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/i386/samba4-clients/filelist

As result I get folowing lines in syslog:

That's correct, "net" has been renamed to "samba-tool" in Samba 4.

and what about symlink /usr/bin/net.samba4 to samba-tool
 for back compability?
like /usr/bin/nmblookup.samba4 for update-alternatives

nmblookup.samba4 isn't there for backwards compatibility but to allow the alternatives to work.

At this point, Samba 4 is still experimental and changing rapidly. We don't have serious backwards compatibility yet. A lot of the subcommands have also changed, so even if we added a symlink then things would still not work as expected.
