I suddenly realised that the error is quite litural: patch is not 
installed on the server! :-)

As the DCs are fully isolated now, I cannot easily install it. I will 
install patch on my production DCs, isolate them again, and rerun 
everything I have done so far.

I will try also to better keep and share the notes of everything done.

So, I did that. And now the dbcheck errors are gone, but now also: 5835 
objects on samba_DC2 vs 5836 objects on samba_DC3. :-|

While ldapcmp reports NO differences between the two samba DCs.

That is interesting? I am used to seeing the same number of objects on 
my DCs.

See here: https://pad.ceph.com/p/ldapcmp

There are around 33 users showing differences. (of the total of 600+)

I intend to do everything over, hopefully follow a straighter path this 
time, document better, and then share with you.
