[Samba] recommanded way to restore objects from Deleted Objects

[Denis Cardon]

Hi everyone,

in samba 4.5 changelog, it says that samba AD now supports tombstone 
reanimation. I've been used to ldbrename and ldbmodify to reanimate 
objects to keep objectSID, but if it is now officially supported, it 
would be better to use the proper way.

Sysinternals tool adrestore [1] seems to be working properly (it does 
not restore most attributes, but this is expected since recycle bin is 
not yet supported. Replication after adrestor'ing an object is fine.

I did'nt found an equivalent with samba-tool. Is using adrestore windows 
command line a proper way to do it? Should we use ntdsutil authoritative 
restore? Is there a samba command line to do that?

Cheers,

Denis
