Hello Steve,

maybe I did not understand the concept behind this secure dynamic DNS
stuff between samba4 adn bind9 with bind_dlz module. I thought that the
following bind9 config ( from samba4 howto) only allows principal
dns-"sambaserver" to add/remove/modify DNS entries

options {
 [...]
 tkey-gssapi-keytab "/usr/local/samba/private/dns.keytab";
 [...]
 };

Also, from reading some postings, I got the impression that members of
the domain (windows workstations, member servers) should be able to
update their DNS entries. But what about network clients that get their
IP via DHCP and which have no machine entry in the AD ? How can their
names be added to the bind9 database dynamically ? How can I enable the
dhcp daemon on another linux server to update the entries for these
network clients ?

Thank you for your kind help

best regards

Andreas
