This guide says to use Samba built against Heimdal.  The Samba in
RHEL/CentOS is built against MIT Kerberos, so you'd need to rebuild
Samba.  There is experimental support for using MIT Kerberos as a DC,
if you're willing to risk it.

Also, with a quick glance over the CentOS8 spec file for Samba, it
builds samba without the Domain Controller configure flag by default.
(Look at the with_dc RPM spec variable here:
https://git.centos.org/rpms/samba/blob/c8/f/SPECS/samba.spec )

It looks like if you want to run an AD DC on CentOS, you'll need to
find some other packages or maintain them yourself.  Good luck.
