NethServer Version: 7.3.1611 (Final)
Module: Accounts Provider
I keep getting this error message when I try to join nethserver to a MS Windows Active directory.

" DNS server IP address
Does not seem an Active Directory domain controller"

I have tried using Windows Server 2008 R2, and Windows Server 2016. The error message is the same.

After your suggestions, I decided to look at the Windows Server logs. I discovered this error.
“Error: 1202
This computer is now hosting the specified directory instance, but Active Directory Web Services could not service it. Active Directory Web Services will retry this operation periodically.”

I have installed a fresh copy of the MS Server and I have successfully managed to join NethServer to the AD.

Thank you.
