## Getting the code

You need two source trees, one is a copy of Samba3 with clustering patches, and the other is the ctdb code itself.

Both source trees are stored in git repositories.

## CTDB

To get an initial checkout of the ctdb code do this:

       git clone git://git.samba.org/ctdb.git ctdb

To update this tree when improvements are made in the upstream code do this:

        cd ctdb
        git pull

If you don't have git and can't easily install it, then you can instead use the following command to fetch ctdb or update it:

        rsync -avz samba.org::ftp/unpacked/ctdb .

## Samba3 ctdb version

With Samba version 3.3 all cluster-relevant changes have been merged to the mainstream Samba code. Please refer to the Samba website for the current release information.

## Binary Packages

Note that packages are so far only available for RHEL5. Other packages may come later.

See packages directory for package downloads.
