Unable to add Additional Domain Controller

[lukewowo]

Installed a new Zentyal 7.0.4 twice, and the same results happen when trying to add an Additional Domain Controller to an existing Zentyal 6.2 domain.

Maybe this problem is related to my topic: #2051

+1 thats simply wrongly written, making it confusing and prone to errors.

DOMAINNAME should be DNS-DOMAINNAME .. ( the "right" part of the hostname.FQDN )
HOSTNAME should be : SERVER-HOSTNAME .. ( the "left" part of the hostname.FQDN )

NETBIOS-DOMAIN = ADDOM or old school .. NT4DOM ( can be anything, but you can follow this rule. )
internal.domain.tld, then INTERNAL is often used at NETBIOS-DOMAINNAME
NETBIOS-HOSTNAME = SERVER-HOSTNAME

please read this one

There are much more restritions then people think, if you want to setup correctly.
