[Samba] Can't join domain as additional domain controller

[Phil Quesinberry]

I'm trying to join an existing domain as an additional domain controller but
I keep getting errors.  Existing domain controller is an old Win2K server
named 'Server'.

 

[root at Server1 samba4]# samba-tool domain join HERSCHLAUREN DC -U
administrator --realm=HERSCHLAUREN.COM

Finding a writeable DC for domain 'HERSCHLAUREN'

Found DC SERVER.HERSCHLAUREN

Failed to connect to ldap URL 'ldap://SERVER.HERSCHLAUREN' - LDAP client
internal error: NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND

Failed to connect to 'ldap://SERVER.HERSCHLAUREN' with backend 'ldap':
(null)

ERROR(ldb): uncaught exception - None

  File "/usr/local/samba/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/samba/samdb.py", line

    options=options)

 

Am I doing something wrong here or is this functionality not quite working
yet?

 

Cheers,
