Windows error messages are not very sysadmin friendly. Could you please
use instead smbclient command line from a domain member linux client to
do your debugging:
  kinit myusername
  smbclient -k //win2k8server/sharename -d 9

And do it with both with dc1 on and off.

Could you check if replication is working properly?
  samba-tool drs showrepl

You should avoid wordings like "please assist for fix". It is deemed
rude (at least in my culture) to give orders to people who don't owe you
anything... They are many kind people on this mailing list that would be
happy to help, but this kind of wording just make them dismiss your
message directly.

Cheers,

Denis
