Unable to activate active directory domain controller in 7 RC1

I guess we can blame the network setup at office?

There we already have production a Windows Server 2003 domain with a primary DC (which is of course a DNS server, and has DHCP enabled) and two secondary DCs, the whole network is behind a firewall, but my PC is allowed to pass through for outgoing traffic, just like at home, and there is a running Zentyal 4.2 test server acting as PDC for a test domain (which is a DNS server, and has DHCP disabled).

I think that was the problem!
You have already a DC on your network and maybe has the same FQDN.

Enjoy now with NS 7RC!
