I don't have anything but Server 2003, 2008 and 2012 to test with. 2003 joins the domain without issue. 2008 and 2012 will not.

We just haven't upgraded yet. If Samba4 fixes this, we'll upgrade. However, my understanding is that Samba4 as AD requires internal LDAP only. We use 4 replicating, load-balanced LDAP servers so the internal LDAP and AD schema won't work. Anyone have an idea with 3.6 I can try?

Using wireshark, the last communication between the client and the Samba server is: RPC_NETLOGON 262 DsrGetDcNameEx2 request DCERPC 146 Fault: call_id: 2, Fragment: Single, Ctx: 0, status: nca_op_rng_error Immediately after this the client starts to close the SMB connection.

As far as I know it's not possible.
