problems adding 2008R2 to BDC to samba4 DC

[Pavel Herrmann]

Hi,

I would start by looking at FSMO roles (if you have a single DC you should 
have them all on that machine), and at DNS responses (dunno which queries it 
uses though)

disclaimer: this is purely derived from the error message, with no guarantees.
