Hi,
If during provision you do not set the DNS server, you use the internal 
server. You also seem to be setting the forwarder to point to itself, 
try setting it (in /usr/local/samba/etc/smb.conf) to point to a known 
good dns server. Ensure that the nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf points 
to either 127.0.0.1 or the machines ip address, check /etc/krb5.conf, it 
should have just three lines in it, if it has more or doesn't exist, 
copy the one from /usr/local/samba/private/krb5.conf. Now restart samba 
4.0.0 and try again
