Please don't use DRDB with Samba as an AD DC. You don't need it (you
should have two DRS replicating DCs). The reason I am so strongly
against this is that I had to work very hard to recover a corrupt
database at such a site. We suspect that barriers were either not
enabled or not passed down to the OS in this case, followed by a
unexpected loss of power. The corrupt database was then perfectly
mirrored to the DRDB clone, resulting in two corrupt mirrors. DRS
replication likely would have detected the corruption (because the
database would not have been valid) and failed the replica, saving the
data.
