[Samba] Failing to join existing AD as DC

[Alexander Harm]

When run on both Samba DCs the result is as expected. Just the Windows DC not showing the two DCs (different site if that is relevant) and the one client (same site as SambaDCs).

Try checking if the DCs exist in AD and if they are in the correct  
place, try this on one of the Samba DCs:  

ldbsearch -H /var/lib/samba/private/sam.ldb -b 'OU=Domain  
Controllers,DC=samdom,DC=example,DC=com' -s sub  
'(&(objectClass=computer)(sAMAccountName=*))' sAMAccountName  

Change it to match your domain etc.  

It should display your DCs  

Run the command on the other DC, you should get the same result.  

You could also run this command:  

ldbsearch -H /var/lib/samba/private/sam.ldb -b  
'CN=Computers,DC=samdom,DC=example,DC=com' -s sub  
'(&(objectClass=computer)(sAMAccountName=*))' sAMAccountName  

It shouldn't display your DCs, but it should show any computers you have.
