samba - May 2014 - Samba4 sites

Hi there,

I currently have 6 Samba4 DC's in different offices around the world. I
have them all the same site (Default-First-Site-Name).

We are having some problems with client machines latching onto the wrong DC
and creating unnecessary lag.

I'd like to create Sites and tie them to Subnets using RSAT tools. Has
anyone had any experience with this? (taking into account that I'll need to
move the Servers into the new Sites).

I did a test move and it killed my PDC (had to reboot).

Any help much appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris.

Currently this is a bug and doesn't allow moving a DC to a site. You can 
join a machine to a site and all should be fine.
