The default DNS backend has changed to BIND9_DLZ. This means the DNS records are stored in Samba4's AD tree instead of in a normal zone file. I've not tried the above, so am not sure exactly how to set it up. There are some posts about it in the samba-technical mailing list archives, though. For the zone file, re-provision with the following option: --dns-backend=BIND9_FLATFILE The BIND9_FLATFILE backend is the old way. BIND9_DLZ and SAMBA_INTERNAL are the two new methods. BIND9_DLZ needs a recent version of bind with DLZ dlopen support. The SAMBA_INTERNAL does not yet support signed DNS updates (last I heard). Since I provisioned samba4 before the DLZ option was available I have stuck with BIND9_FLATFILE for now. If you're just starting out, you might want to try the DLZ backend. -- Michael Wood <esiot...@gmail.com> -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
