Not sure it will help you particularly, but I had to reference both the official documentation https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Joining_a_Samba_DC_to_an_Existing_Active_Directory#Installing_Samba. However, this article/blogs covers I some gaps that are not easy to see or easy to miss in the official doc.

After following this guide with a freshly installed Ubuntu 22.04, I get a message in Windows saying that the RPC server is unavailable. I can't see anything in logs about it and am at a loss on how to proceed. Is anyone else running into this?

Would this also work on a domain with a Windows Server as primary DC? (given, that the functional level of the AD is 2008R2 or below)

This would be a nice way to slowly migrate away from Windows

If you shut down the primary DC, the secondary DC fails to serve any requests.
