It has no problem to create a new domain and allow XP to join it.
Your help will be appreciated.


Hi, have you provisioned the samba4 server? does /usr/local/samba/etc/smb.conf exist?

When you try to join a domain as domain controller, the join command replaces the provisioning step - and in fact you should delete your smb.conf before you do it, because it will be re-created during the join.

I agree with the original poster that "uncaught exception - None" is not exactly a helpful error message. But since it's the initial bind to the domain controllers LDAP that fails, I'd guess that it's a permission problem on the other server's side or a problem with network connectivity.

I would try including the administrator password on the join command line: -Uadministrator%password ... I'm not sure if sambatool will actually ask if you don't give it the password right away. What you could also try is checking with a generic ldap client if the other domain controller will actually let you connect at all to its ldap server.

Best Regards,

Sven
