samba - Jun 2015 - samba4 domain and powershell

Hi, All.

In official samba wiki 
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Installing_RSAT_on_Windows_for_AD_Management#Installation
Feature explanation:
Active Directory Module for Windows PowerShell: Administrating AD via 
PowerShell

I thought I can manage samba4 domain with powershell, but I can't. I see 
error "Unable to find a default server with active directory web 
services running" when I run Active Directory Module for Windows 
PowerShell. The ability to domain manage via powershell is absent or 
something I'm doing wrong.

I think those commandlet use the "Active Directory Management Gateway 
Service"  through the HTTP protocol and webservices (port TCP/9389) [1]. 
I'm afraid those webservice are not yet implemented in Samba4.

Cheers,

Denis
