We suggest separating them, because having them on the same server
implies you only have one AD DC, and that isn't a good idea.

Additionally, folks often wish to upgrade the AD DC on a different
schedule to the file server.  I'm sure others will pile on with the
other various reasons, but this is the core of it.
