[Samba] samba4: problems setting up win DC

[L.P.H. van Belle]

try this.

Manually create System Volume Author: Internal 

Copy the system volume from another domain controller (or restore from backup if none is available), then set the following registry value:

Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Netlogon\Parameters

Value to set: Sysvolready = 1

Then restart the netlogon service and check again for the NETLOGON and SYSVOL shares. they should now appear.


Greetz, 

Louis
