The howto says " you need to build Samba as usual, but don't do the provision 
step. You should remove any existing smb.conf in /usr/local/samba/etc"So I did 
not do the "samba-tool domain provision..." Also I deleted the smb.conf file in 
/usr/local/samba/etc
My existing domain is on a Windows 2008. I am trying to join it from a Ubuntu 
Samba 4 as a secondary DC, not as a client.
Now there is no smb.conf file in /usr/local/samba/etc
Since the samba-tool domain join command failed, there should not be a smb.conf 
file.
What I have seen is that the Ubuntu computer name now is showing in the Windows 
2008 computer list.
I restarted the Windows 2008 trying to join the domain, still it failed.
Should i do a apt-get install samba4 instead git clone ?
Thanks a lot!
