Okay I didn't read that. surprised that it should work with the databases as
is. The dbcheck function was quite involved when it was run on the 4.5.5.

Looks like it was the samba install that caused the problem, but not which
version. For reasons that I won't go into one of the DC's had lost the
_msdcs.domain.com record and replication went to pot. Fixed the problem,
we'll see how it goes.

one other thing. The thing that pointed me towards the missing cname issue was
samba-tool drs showrepl
with the WERR_BADFILE error associated with the CNAME-less server. I had
generated a similar problem recently for another DC by introducing a typo when I
created the CNAME record. When I corrected it the WERR_BADFILE error went away.
I mention this for anyone searching the web for a solution to WERR_BADFILE,
which in this context is about the most misleading error I could imagine. (it
may make sense at a lower level, but when you're troubleshooting,
'BADFILE' really does not suggest a missing DNS record)

Glad you figured it out. It's very rare to want to go back to an old minor version, so that's why we thought it was weird.
