This sounds like a Windows specific issue. Did you license per-seat
or per-user? The server may expect to find a license server in the
domain. I would suspect that if you take the machine out of the
domain it will still eventually complain. Did you activate licenses
before joining it to the domain? Is this your first 2008 R2 server?
2008R2 activation looks more restrictive than 2008. Was this a Volume
License version of 2008R2?

Hello,
I'm have an established Samba domain, where Samba is the PDC. It is working well
with XP and Win7 clients.
However, there is some bespoke software that must run on a Windows Server, due
to the number of concurrent connections issue.
So, we have installed a Windows 2008 R2 server and joined it to the Samba
domain. This worked fine after applying the registry changes listed on the Samba
wiki.
However, I am now getting an error displayed on the Windows Server:
'The server did not finish checking the license compliance. If the server is
joined to a domain, make sure that the server can connect to a domain
controller. If the license check cannot be completed, the server will
automatically shut down in 10 day(s) 22 hour(s). For more information, click
Help'
Are the any suggested fixes, or config options that will satisfy the Windows
server?
Many thanks,
