[Samba] Samba4 on Ubuntu 12.04 won't join existing domain

[pccom frank]

Yes. It is working now. 
I added the Samba4 server computer name and put the IP address in Windows 2008. I also put the Windows 2008 name and IP address in Samba server computer /etc/hosts.

Thank you very much.

        The howto says " you need to build Samba as usual, but don't do
        the provision step. You should remove any existing smb.conf in
        /usr/local/samba/etc"
        
          So I did not do the "samba-tool domain provision..." Also
            I deleted the smb.conf file in /usr/local/samba/etc
          

          
          My existing domain is on a Windows 2008. I am trying to
            join it from a Ubuntu Samba 4 as a secondary DC, not as a
            client.
          

          
          Now there is no smb.conf file in /usr/local/samba/etc
          

          
          Since the samba-tool domain join command failed, there
            should not be a smb.conf file.
          

          
          What I have seen is that the Ubuntu computer name now is
            showing in the Windows 2008 computer list.
          

          
          I restarted the Windows 2008 trying to join the domain,
            still it failed.
          

          
          Should i do a apt-get install samba4 instead git clone ?
          

          
          Thanks a lot!

    Hi, this works for me adding a second DC to a Samba 4 domain. 

    Is the hostname of the  Windows 2008 DC 'dell2008.delltest.pccom.ca'
    If so, then there must be a connection/permissions problem and you
    need to sort this out before going further
