[Samba] GPO issues - getting SYSVOL cleaned up again

[L.P.H. van Belle]

Hai, 

I just renamed that file to .old on one of my DC's. 

systemctl stop samba-ad-dc && systemctl start samba-ad-dc
New file is created yes, so this looks like the solution. 

Stefan, once this is done. 

Verify again the servers in :
 Sites - Default-First-Site-Name - Servers 
Windows DNS tool, zone 

your.dom.tld. For the A 
IN-ARPA .. For the PTR. 
_msdcs.your.dom.tld. For GUIDs. 

If its all good now, give it a few min, then verify the samba ad replication again. 

Greetz, 

Louis
