I cannot translate the information that I possess into a samba-tool dns delete
command.  When I query dns I see no SRV records.

samba-tool dns query smb4-2.brockley.harte-lyne.ca brockley.harte-lyne.ca '@'

If I extend the domain name to include _udp I get a zone not found error:

samba-tool dns query smb4-2.brockley.harte-lyne.ca _udp.brockley.harte-lyne.ca
'@' all -U administrator
Password for [BROCKLEY\administrator]:
ERROR: Record or zone does not exist.

The samba-tool dns delete command requires the exact RR record to be deleted. 
How do I get samba-tool to give me the SRV records for ntp?

Thank you for all your help.
