samba - Oct 2024 - Problem with a domain controller that is located in a separate site

thanks for the video provided, I watched it, I didn't understand
something very well, but still, as I understand it,
in order for the sites to start communicating with each other,
a linked site link is needed, and also if there is
only one dc on the site, we tell him to act as breadgehead, which I
did in the screenshots below, but this did not affect the creation of
ntdsconnections, but as I understand it, replication somehow functions
anyway, maybe there are some guesses why ntds connection is not being
created?

I am observing a discrepancy in the data

Have you tried running "samba_kcc"? Just this command and nothing
else.
For me it did create the topology.
