Mismatch between filesystem path and netlogon.conf regarding domain name case sensitivity #268

Hi,

I’m currently setting up the container and ran into an issue where the netlogon share was inaccessible. I suspect there might be a case-sensitivity mismatch regarding the domain name path.

Observed behavior:

Inside the container, the actual path on the filesystem is in lowercase:
/var/lib/samba/sysvol/domain.name/

However, the netlogon.conf configuration points to an uppercase path:

[netlogon]
    path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol/DOMAIN.NAME/scripts
    read only = No

Workaround:

I managed to resolve the issue by creating a symbolic link:
ln -s /var/lib/samba/sysvol/domain.name /var/lib/samba/sysvol/DOMAIN.NAME

Question:

Is this behavior intended (e.g., due to specific Samba or filesystem requirements), or is it a minor oversight in the configuration template? I’m relatively new to this specific setup, so please let me know if I’ve missed a configuration step or if this is indeed a bug.

Thanks for the great work on this project!
