[Samba] Join a subdomain DC to a domain DC

[Elias Pereira]

Yes, as I mentioned, I will use another dns domain. :)

In the old domain was provisioned with the option --use-rfc2307. I believe
that it is the attributes that you mention? If so, can I migrate the users
to the new DC, so that they have the same ID?
