I want to keep Samba the AD DC Version on my system, but CentOS removes it. I have seen commands like: sudo dnf update --exclude=httpd Is that just for a user initiated update? I also see in the /etc/ directory ls -l /etc/dnf/protected.d/ total 36 -rw-r–r–. 1 root root 14 Sep 7 17:00 grub2-e…

I might be missing something here, but to me it appears the culprit is sssd. As you do not need and, in my opinion, shouldn’t run sssd on a Samba AD DC, just remove sssd. See if that fixes your problem.
