Hi Brendan, I am new to samba and have been bringing up samba4 to try
things out. For what its worth, I had trouble with DNS initially as
well, and have two suggestions:
1) what level of bind do you have? if pre 9.8, then upgrade to post 9.8
as several fixes have been put in for samba at 9.8 level. This can save
a lot of time....
2) Have you seen the the samba4 how-to:
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/HOWTO#Video_demonstrations_of_this_HOWTO
...step 8 has information on how to configure the DNS and some
suggestions on how to avoid some common problems and step 10 is on
configuring kerberos DNS dynamic updates.
