[Samba] FSMO / ldbsearch

[Jonathan Hunter]

Hi,

After a couple of unfortunate hardware failures and some not insignificant
amount of work to rebuild two of my DCs, I am trying to check that things
are now working correctly.

Looking at the wiki page on FSMO ownership, one suggestion is to run the
following ldbsearch command.. but this doesn't work for me.

***@dc2:~# ldbsearch --cross-ncs -H /var/lib/samba/private/sam.ldb -b
"CN=Infrastructure,DC=DomainDnsZones,DC=mydomain,dc=org,dc=uk" -s base
fsmoroleowner
search failed - Unsupported critical extension 1.2.840.113556.1.4.1340
***@dc2:~# samba -V
Version 4.4.4

Has something changed since the wiki page was created? Or is something
broken at my end? :) I can't say I have run this command before, so I don't
know if it worked previously.

Cheers,

Jonathan

I just tried running it on Ubuntu 14.04 and that command works for me(with
my details). It sounds like and issue with your ldbsearch. Not sure if
you want to but if you send the sam.ldb I can try running it on my machine
as well. But might have some sensitive things in there.

Also, I'm assuming you did samba-tool fsmo show, correct?
