[Samba] Samba AD - "No logon servers available"

[Bruno Miguel Martins]

Hi everyone,

Thank you all for your responses. Turns out it was a networking problem.

Switching configuration was still pointing to old IPBrick "DC" as its helper, which was causing this behavior.

Cheers,

Bruno

If, has you think, the OP now has no Samba DCs, then 'temporarily' is an understatement ;-)
