technically that is correct if we are using the Windows

That's another issue to deal with then.  We are completely
able to deal with disjoint domains so this should be fine.
But we rely heavily on working DNS so there may be a
subtle failure here.

You could send me the two logs from

  $ domainjoin-cli --log . --loglevel verbose join domain.com \
    Admin pasword > /tmp/join/log 2> /tmp/net_join.log

Cool.  So it was just shell interaction then.
