[Samba] Join W2008 R2 64bit to samba 3.5.8

[Daniel Müller]

For true I set this in my registry and nothing else:

> HKLM\System\CCS\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters
> DWORD DomainCompatibilityMode = 1
> DWORD DNSNameResolutionRequired = 0

Restarted w2008 R2 X64 and the same error on and on....
Joining a windows 7 X64 without any trouble.
The only difference I mentioned further is :HyperV is running on the w2008
machine  along with several nics.
To go further I configured bind on the Samba-PDC to serve the dns-records:

host -t SRV _ldap._tcp.tuepdc.local.
_ldap._tcp.tuepdc.local has SRV record 0 0 389 tuepdc.tuepdc.local.

host -t A tuepdc.tuepdc.local.
tuepdc.tuepdc.local has address 192.168.135.143

Now the w2008 give errors about an A or AAA record. Just stupid!

I examined that Windows Server 2008 R2 can join Samba 3.5.6
domain. Only to need to change is:

> HKLM\System\CCS\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters
> DWORD DomainCompatibilityMode = 1
> DWORD DNSNameResolutionRequired = 0

as described at https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Windows7

According to your error message, DNSNameResolutionRequired is not yet
enabled...
