I have a CentOS 6.4 box with SerNet's Samba 4.0.8 installed and no
smb.conf file yet, as it should be. I want it to become an AD DC in my
existing Windows domain, replicating from the existing Windows Server
2003 box. I have SELinux enabled and want it to stay that way.
I'm getting this error trying to run samba-tool:
$ sudo samba-tool domain join currentwindowsadserver.mydomain.lan DC
-Uadministrator --realm=currentwindowsadserver.mydomain.lan
Finding a writeable DC for domain 'currentwindowsadserver.mydomain.lan'

raise Exception("Failed to find a writeable DC for domain '%s'" %
domain)
I have a StackExchange thread open with all the things I've tried
changing and all the things I've verified so far:
http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/86516/samba-4-gives-failed-to-find-a-writeable-dc-for-domain-on-samba-tool-domain-jo
I'd appreciate any pointers. I seem to have run out of things to try.
Thanks,
Kev
