Hi Jerry,

I compiled with --with-dnsupdate
Join is successful but DNS update fails either way.

root at safecube:~$ /usr/local/samba/bin/net ads join -U  
Administrator at NVS.SE
Administrator at NVS.SE's password:
Using short domain name -- NVS-SE
DNS update failed!
Joined 'SAFECUBE' to realm 'NVS.SE'
root at safecube:~$ /usr/local/samba/bin/net ads dns register -P
DNS update failed!
root at safecube:~$

Thanks for you help,

Cheers
Henrik
