Hi all,
You can found all warning and best practice to join an existing AD to a
Samba AD, but, Samba4 doesn't support joining a 2012 AD as a Domain
Controller, so... too bad for you if you have an 2012 AD.

Hey Steve,
I joined my Samba/OpenChange/Sogo Server to my existing Windows Active
Directory as a member. I followed the offical Native Microsoft Outlook
Configuration Guide from sogo.nu
(http://sogo.nu/files/docs/SOGo%20Native%20Microsoft%20Outlook%20Configuration.pdf).
Installing the software and entering my crendentials is done and
doublechecked.
But everytime I enter the command:
"openchange_newuser --create dmoebus",
I get the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/sbin/openchange_newuser", line 70, in <module>
lp, creds, opts.firstorg, opts.firstou)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/openchange/provision.py",
line
167, in guess_names_from_smbconf
raise Exception("Cannot find first exchange organization in %s",
exchangedn)
Exception: ('Cannot find first exchange organization in %s',
'CN=Microsoft Exchange,CN=Services,CN=Configuration,CN=SOGO')
What is wrong? Google has no answers for me...
Thank you!

It cannot find the "first exchange organization" because it's not
querying your existing Microsoft AD
IF you followed the Inverse, "Native Microsoft Outlook Configuration
Guide," you installed the Samba & OpenChange packages from Inverse
(so, you have the correct packages), but how did you provision Samba?
At the moment you can only provision as a DC.
The Guide tells you to provision as an AD controller. However,
that's not going to "fit" your existing AD
At this point, I'd check the configuration options in the Samba Wiki
on "joining" as a Member --
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setup_Samba_as_an_AD_Domain_Member
Compare the configuration and setups between the Inverse Guide and
the Samba link, and see what you find. You're looking for
differences. One of the main issues is DNC: "Which AD DC does your
smb.conf point to?"
There are people more expert in both Samba & OpenChange on this list,
so maybe someone will see the flaw.
The flaw is probably that he has created a new domain and is now
trying to join it to another domain, I don't think this is going to
work, it may help to say one way or the other, if the OP was to post
the smb.conf from the Sogo machine.
The "first exchange organization" is contained in the database
controlling the AD (usually an LDB in Samba), but you're connected to
the Microsoft AD, so it has to look there, and it's not looking at
the right domain controller.
The question would be, "How did you join your existing Microsoft AD?"
Very good question.
