[Samba] More AD DC Questions - GPO Issues

[Nick Couchman]

Another question related to Samba 4 as an Active Directory DC (with other Windows DCs present).  I'll mention that I am using rsync to synchornize the sysvol share between the Windows-based DCs and the Linux-based DCs, so the GPO objects should be consistent across all of the DCs.  When I try to do a "gpupdate" on my Windows 7 Pro/Enterprise clients, I am frequently receiving the following message:

"The processing of Group Policy failed.  Windows could not determine if the user and computer accounts are in the same forest.  Ensure the user domain name matches the name of a trusted domain that resides in the same forest as the computer account."

Anyone know why this is happening, or where I should start debugging?  I'm not sure why it's having trouble matching computer and user domains, since the computer is in the domain, I can successfully authenticate to the domain, and can attach to other computers in the domain.  Any pointers/help in tracking down the problem would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Nick
