Good morning,

I installed a Samba 4 domain controller following your tutorial, but I'm encountering a problem...

I installed RSAT to administer the server, but when I launch the GPO management console, I get an error message when it tries to detect the replication status between Active Directory and SYSVOL (I can access the SYSVOL and NETLOGON shares). The error message is:
A processing error occurred while collecting data using this base domain controller. Please change the base domain controller and try again.
While doing some research, I came across Microsoft support:
https://support.microsoft.com/fr-fr/kb/2979923

Unfortunately, I cannot apply the fixes they mention since they are for Windows Server.

But then I wondered if it was just an incompatibility with Samba? And if you're also experiencing the same issue? Or if there's a way to fix it? I haven't found anything yet, but if you have any ideas, I'd appreciate it.

THANKS

Good evening,

I have already encountered this case, for me it was a problem with permissions on the Policies directories in Sysvol.
