[Samba] setting the local administrator password on a samba4 member server connected to windows AD DC

[Chan Min Wai]

Dear Marcathian,

That is the domain Administrator

Because you specify it.
net rpc rights grant 'SAMDOM\Domain Admins' SeDiskOperatorPrivilege
-Uadministrator

Change the -Uadministrator to yourself to see if that can be done...

Thank you
