So I had the same problem. For me it ended up being that some attribute was
not created correctly in 389 using the instructions in the guide. I don't
remember what it was off the top of my head. Something about a default user
or group SID I think. Had to turn samba logging up. Eventually it shows the
attribute it is failing on. I ended up manually adding it with vildap and
it worked fine after that. If noone else gets it I'll poke around and see
if I can find what it was, took me several hours to debug due to the
somewhat misleading error message.
