Hi,

Again more data: The command
  samba-tool visualize reps
seems to agree with the observed lack of replication from DC4 to DC3 & DC2:

I hope formatting survives.

ABove it says: "no connection" for DOMAIN from DC4 to DC3 / DC2.

Even though there is nothing in between our DCs. No firewalling, all in
the same subnet, etc.

Anyone can explain more..?
