Thanks for the reference (and the bug report apparently ;-)

Do you know anything about the supposed problem with moving a samba4 DC 
to a site using the Active Directory Sites and Services tool?

I have the two new sites created, and I'd like to move the existing 
(only) DC into the new site, and then create a new dc in the second 
site, but I don't want to corrupt anything if samba4 can't handle it.

Thanks,
David
