[Samba] Migrate Samba AD to Windows AD for M365

[Max Olivas]

I have already added one Windows Server 2012R2 to my domain following the instructions found here:

https://dev.tranquil.it/samba/en/samba_advanced_methods/samba_add_windows_active_directory.html

I haven't tried transferring any of the FSMO roles to it as of yet.  Any known gotchas to watch out for?

Thanks,
Max

Schema version 69 is the schema for Windows 2021R2 and you may be able 
to join a 2012R2 DC, but it requires WMI or a 2008R2 DC. As far as I am 
aware, you cannot join a later DC version to a Samba domain, we have a 
wikipage here:
