I think you mean --targetdir since the previous doesn't work

It works!

Two other things:
- I need / want to change the realm and domain. How I can? If I re-try to use
provision, I receive an error.
- When the error is raised, a "wrong message" are shown. I think that the python
code have to be changed from:

samba.provisionexceptions.ProvisioningError: ("guess_names: Realm '%s' in
smb.conf must match chosen realm '%s'!", 'YOUR.REALM', 'NEW.LOCAL')

to:
samba.provisionexceptions.ProvisioningError: ("guess_names: Realm '%s' in
smb.conf must match chosen realm '%s'!" % 'YOUR.REALM', 'NEW.LOCAL')

printf confusing? :)
