samba - Feb 2018 - Is it possible to lower the domain and forest functional level

I've found a solution. The samba ldap was missing 2 information to allow a
windows 2008 R2 to join the domain as a secondary controller.
Those informations were :
CN=ActiveDirectoryUpdate,CN=ForestUpdates,cn=configuration,dc=yourdomain,dc=local
with the attribute revision set to 5
and
CN=ActiveDirectoryUpdate,CN=DomainUpdates,CN=System,dc=yourdomain,dc=local with
the attribute revision set to 5

But now dcpromo fails replicating CN=Configuration,DC=mydomain,DC=com.
dcpromo.log shows "-1507 JET_errColumnNotFound, No such column"

Sorry I mean adprep instead of dcpromo. 2008 keeps asking for adprep when trying
to promote it.

Hello all,

We have a samba 4 domain controller.
The domain controller was at first a secondary domain controller.
We joined it to a domain were the first controller was a windows 2003 server.
Then we have transfer the fsmo roles to the linux controller and demote the 2003
server.
I then ran all the ldf files from the 2008 R2 dcpromo and raised the functional
levels.
Now we need to go back to windows domain controller because we need to use
sharepoint.
Joining a Windows 2008 R2 controller does not work ( it keeps asking for dcpromo
).
So I would like to try to join a Windows 2003 but I can't because of the
functionnal levels.
So is there a way to lower the domain and forest functional level ?
