[Samba] Samba 4 AD share: Access denied

As a C/C++ programmer, I love building the latest stable and enjoy 
having it, but I am beginning to think maybe I should be using the 
backports S4. I will have to do that on Monday however, since I need 
physical access to wipe and reinstall the VM. It would be fewer packages 
to install though, since I would not need the headers and such. Oh wait, 
it's a VM. I still have to build the virtualized drivers. Still, I may 
give it a go. The version you stated is only two versions behind what I 
am running (4.1.11), so no big loss there. For now however, I am going 
to attempt to make this work. If I have failed then Monday i will try 
your suggestion when I can get access to the physical system.
