Matthieu, I finished the investigation on this behavior. As per MS-ADTS 3.1.5.5.7.2 , when a tree deletion is performed , every object in the tree will be checked to see if it has isCriticalSystemObject set to TRUE, including the root node on which the delete operation is performed. But there is an exception if the root object is a SAM specific objects(3.1.1.5.2.3 MS-ADTS). Its deletion is done through SAM manger and isCriticalSystemObject attribute is not checked. The root node of the tree delete in your case is CN=ARES,OU=Domain Controllers,DC=w2k8r2,DC=home,DC=matws,DC=net ,which is a SAM object with user class. Therefore the tree deletion is performed without any error.
I performed another test in which I tried to do a tree delete on an object with isCriticalSystemObject set to TRUE, but the object itself is not a SAM object, I received an error as expected. The object I tried to delete is cn=ForeignSecurityPricipals, DC=Contoso,DC=com I will file a request for this behavior to be documented in the constraint of tree deletion section (3.1.1.5.5.7.2 MS-ADTS).

Yes, With the keytab provided you do wireshark -K path_to_keytab trace.pcap, Wireshark must be configurated to decrypt krb5 blobs (see https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Wireshark_Keytab). > Did the packet 1848 define a delete operation on record #1 with > LDAP_SERVER_TREE_DELETE_OID specified? Have you checked that both records > are not in the AD any more after tree deletion ? Yes check the attached screenshot. And yes all the objects are removed. I've the feeling that the isCriticalObject rule apply only for the subobjects, that is to say if I CN=foo,CN=bar,DC=domain,DC=tld with isCriticalObject then if I try to use the subtree on CN=bar,DC=domain,DC=tld it should fail. But if the isCriticalObject is only on CN=bar,DC=domain,DC=tld then the use of the deltree is permited.
