Need help configuring samba4 Active Directory remote access


Does someone out there have some serious experience with samba4, samba-tool and administering samba4 Domain Controller / Active Directory? I need some serious help and can't find much on the web. I *believe* I've set up the DC/AD ok. I'm able to join the domain from Windows computers and create users using RSAT who can log on to the various workstations.

My next mission was to permit users to log on remotely using Windows Remote Desktop Connection. I followed the instructions at http://www.dannyeckes.com/server-201...up-policy-gpo/ and my results look like his screen shots. But, the upshot of my effort was that, not only can AD created users still not log on remotely, my Administrator user also can no longer log on remotely either, whereas Administrator used to be able to do this.

Unfortunately, I am doing this setup largely remotely and have infrequent access to sitting in front of the physical server or workstations. I am now locked out of the RSAT tool on Windows, but do have ssh access to the Linux samba4 server.

Can someone help be fix this? Can I use samba-tools or something to repair the security group settings. Or, failing that, remove these settings so I'm at least back where I was?

Help!

I reimplemented the Samba4 DC/AD using Slackware instead of Debian and it worked fine. I did not use Debian Server and the client version must have some odd "helper" programs that interefered with something.
