No I didn't, I just provisioned as normal, but there is a user at 
CN=dns-adserver,CN=Users,DC=home,DC=lan. Should I remover this user or 
can I just ignore it?

All the dns tests from the howto work as written. I added the reverse 
zone via samba-tool:
samba-tool dns zonecreate 192.168.0.10 0.168.192.in-addr.arpa -U 
Administrator

I then added the reverse record for the server:
samba-tool dns add 192.168.0.10 0.168.192.in-addr.arpa 10 PTR 
adserver.home.lan -U Administrator

Both commands were supposedly successfully, but host -t PTR 192.168.0.10 
returns
10.0.168.192.in-addr.arpa has no PTR record

I tried to add the reverse record again but:
samba-tool dns add 192.168.0.10 0.168.192.in-addr.arpa 10 PTR 
adserver.home.lan -U Administrator

ERROR: Record already exists

So, as far as I can see, host says the record does not exist, but 
samba-tool says it does.

Thanks, I will read the website and get a capture and post it later

Thanks again
