I haven't tried this, as I don't have a windows DC, but I suspect you
could use rsync from windows (without xattrs), then do a samba-tool ntacl
sysvolreset on the linux DC(s) to reset the file permissions (might want
to initiate the rsync from linux so you can do the sysvolreset immediately
after).
