Trying to understand waf options

Question

I'm a noob to waf. I need to configure, build & install samba-4.1.4 on my RHL 6.5 system. Trying to understand waf options specifically I've noted a lot of "with-xxxxx" options, and a few "without-xxxxx" options. My question is: can I specify "without-xxxxx" if I don't want a particular samba feature built? e.g. there's a default "with-ldap", can I specify "without-ldap" ?? The supplied documentation does not specify exactly how to negate a default option. I hope I've made myself clear Thanks

Usually, if there's a -withxxx, that feature isn't enabled by default. — kirbyfan64sos, Feb 08 '14 at 17:42
Yes, thanks I went ahead and used the without-xxxx and ran the waf config process and it ran w/o error — Guy Rich, Feb 08 '14 at 18:02
