hello,

In a test environment I set up two DCs.

DC1.sandom.teste.com
DC2.sandom.teste.com

All tests requested by the wiki were done and all ok.

I tried to join a Samba DC to an existing Active Directory, but after it
requests the password, the following error occurs.

root at dc2 # samba-tool domain join sandom.teste.com DC
-U"SERTAO\administrator" --dns-backend=BIND9_DLZ --option='idmap_ldb:use
rfc2307 = yes'


ERROR(<class 'samba.join.DCJoinException'>): *uncaught exception - Can't
join, error: Not removing account DC2$ which looks like a Samba DC account

Any idea?
