OK, you need to use a user that has the required permissions to transfer 
or seize the dns fsmo roles, that will cure your first problem. The 
second will take sometime, the error message is trying to tell you that 
you do not have an fsmo roleowner for at least one of the dns roles. 
There are patches going through Samba-technical, but they seem to have 
got stuck, so I have prodded Andrew and asked him to either push my 
patches or his changes to them.
