[Samba] AD DC eventually not browsable without restart

Hmm...it hasn't been long enough since a restart yet, because it's not 
doing it ATM, but nonetheless if it's a question of an extra 45 mb I 
think we have it covered:

tmpfs                 5.9G     0  5.9G   0% /dev/shm

But I'll check anyway next opportunity and report back if it's a positive.
