The only problem is, many will not know which fields to use, etc. Hence
the request, but whatever is best.

Ok, two bug reports here, I guess. First, I just had to move several
servers. samba_dnsupdate found the new IP addresses, but didn't remove
the old ones. I think 'update delete FQDN' does the trick, if it is
possible to know when to issue this.

As for net ads dns register, if I am kinited as administrator or
HOSTNAME$ and run it, I get "DNS update fialed!"

On the server, in /var/named/data/named.run, (with high debug  value on
named) I see:

client 10.0.0.21#45674: query
gss cred: "DNS/realm at REALM", GSS_C_ACCEPT, 4294961332
failed gss_accept_sec_context: GSSAPI error: Major = Unspecified GSS
failure.  Minor code may provide more information, Minor = Wrong
principal in request.
process_gsstkey(): dns_tsigerror_badkey

With lower debug, I simply see:

update unsuccessful:host/A: 'RRset exists (value dependent)'
prerequisite not satisfied (NXRRSET)

I will try Samba 3.6.0rc1 hopefully this today or some time Monday.

Thank you,
Trever Adams
