Any chance you can downgrade to Win 2008 (not R2?)

Thanks,
I'll see if we can upgrade to S4.

Unfortunately, 2008 servers require AD to function properly with
licensing. This question has been posed a few times and that was the
conclusion. It works with S4 but not s3,,

I had a third party seem to get this working on a test server with
adding extra samba/ldap schemas but have never implemented live as we
decided to move to S4..

Hello,
I'm have an established Samba domain, where Samba is the PDC. It is
working well with XP and Win7 clients.
However, there is some bespoke software that must run on a Windows
Server, due to the number of concurrent connections issue.

So, we have installed a Windows 2008 R2 server and joined it to the Samba
domain. This worked fine after applying the registry changes listed on
the Samba wiki.

However, I am now getting an error displayed on the Windows Server:

'The server did not finish checking the license compliance. If the server
is joined to a domain, make sure that the server can connect to a domain
controller. If the license check cannot be completed, the server will
automatically shut down in 10 day(s) 22 hour(s). For more information,

Are the any suggested fixes, or config options that will satisfy the
Windows server?

Many thanks,
