[Samba] Sysvol "incorrect parameter" on some new DC's

I have a site with a working Samba4 AD domain with a single DC.  It
works.

I've added three new DCs to the domain [using the SerNet packages for
4.0.21].  The intention is to then demote the old, original Samba4 DC.

But problems exist for netlogon/sysvol.  One of the new DCs - the second
one added - works, clients can access netlogon & sysvol.

However the other two DCs have ACL errors on their sysvol & netlogon
volumes.

~> smbclient -U XXXXX -W XXXXXX \\\\DC4.example.com\\netlogon
Enter XXXXXX password: 
Domain=[BACKBONE] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 4.0.21-SerNet-RedHat-7.el6]
smb: \> ls
NT_STATUS_INVALID_ACL listing \*

Windows 7 clients see a "The parameter is incorrect" message.

All three servers have sysvol contents that were rsync'd from the
original DC in the same manner.

On a DC where the sysvol does *not* work, the ntacl check seems to
complete without errors.

[root at HOST ~]# samba-tool ntacl sysvolreset
Please note that POSIX permissions have NOT been changed, only the
stored NT ACL
[root at HOST ~]# samba-tool ntacl sysvolcheck
