Ah, that sounds better.

Have you tried with the OS Samba packages ?
Just in case it is a compile problem ?

Now, you said this:

I have an AD with samba 4.6.7 (compiled from sources) on Fedora 17, and 
i tried to upgrade to 4.17.4, but the database upgrade fails.

Can we confirm what version of Fedora your Samba domain is running on 
and what Samba version ?

What version of Fedora you are trying to join to your existing domain ?

What is the exact command you are running in your attempt to join to the 
domain ?

What is the error you get when the join fails ?
