thanks a lot for your patches Kai. I pulled out the git master branch 
this afternoon, compiled merrily, provisioned eagerly, and there are 
indeed DNS entries which looks quite fine in the 
cn=MicrosoftDNS,cn=System,<base_dn> ldap branch. Great!

However, I still couldn't resolve dns entries. Looking at samba4 debug 
trace, it seems that it is looking at 
dn=CN=MicrosoftDNS,DC=DomainDnsZones,<base_dn> for dnsZone, and not in 
the cn=MicrosoftDNS,cn=System,<base_dn> where the entries have been 
created.

Moreover, looking at an existing MS AD install, the forward dns entries 
where actually in the dn=CN=MicrosoftDNS,DC=DomainDnsZones,<base_dn> and 
it seems to me that it should be in a separate partition.

Thanks a lot for your efforts !

Denis
