Description Clive Ferreira 2016-10-31 01:13:10 UTC 
With the standard DC promotion tool, we fail to pass the initial pre-requisites check which prevents Windows from even attempting the join. This check appears to use WMI over DCOM (which Samba does not support) in order to test for the Exchange schema.
