This sounds very similar to a problem I was having, though not quite. In
my situation, DNS changes on the existing DC were replicated to the
Samba server, but not vice versa. I ended up solving the problem by
manually listing the Samba server as holding a replica of the
DomainDnsZones and ForestDnsZones application partitions. Try running
these commands on a Windows machine:

ntdsutil "part man" "conn" "con to ser <windowsdc>" q "add nc replica
DC=DomainDnsZones,DC=<domain>,DC=<tld> <linuxdc>" q q
ntdsutil "part man" "conn" "con to ser <windowsdc>" q "add nc replica
DC=ForestDnsZones,DC=<domain>,DC=<tld> <linuxdc>" q q

Replace the items in angle brackets with their actual values (removing
the brackets), of course.

I ran these commands on the Windows server (server1), and I'm seeing a
slight improvement.  Thanks for the help.

Samba4 (server2) now shows some outbound neighbors.
Can you post the full output of `samba-tool drs showrepl`?

...
Are the IPs supposed to be populated during DNS replication, or is the
client supposed to update both DCs?
No, the client is only supposed to update the DC it authenticated against. The replication should pass the information along.

Does the resolver on server2 need
to be pointed to itself in order for DNS replication to work properly?
While this is generally accepted as best practice, it shouldn't technically matter as long as server2 can resolve everything in the forest.

Thanks,
Alan
