So I set up two boxes as Samba4 domain controllers. (One to provision the
domain, and one joining it.) Both of these have IPTables in place that
allow my home IP address to access any protocol/port. The domain that I
configured is AD.WINDSOFSTORM.NET, and I have delegated NS records for that
domain to the two servers that are running Samba (using the Samba internal
DNS server). My understanding, although this was not covered explicitly in
any of the docs that I found, was that this would be sufficient for DNS
purposes so that I would not have to repoint my workstation to use those
servers directly for DNS resolution; the requests for anything under that
subdomain will get properly routed there instead.

However, I am unable to join the domain. Looking at the logs, I don't see
anything going on. I tried just manually connecting to \\
sage.windsofstorm.net, the PDC, and I got "Windows cannot access this
share". But I can use netcat to reach the server over UDP 139/TCP 389/etc.
Is there something that I need to specify given that the server is on a
different network than my home network? (I can't set up a VPN to that
network at this point in time as I already have a VPN in place for work.
Maybe down the line.)

I'm a little confused as to what I should be checking at this point. All
the guides I've found seem to indicate that it should "just work" at this
point.
