OK, I 'think' I have tracked this down. During the join, 
'setup_bind9_dns' from sambadns.py is called, this in turn calls 
'secretsdb_setup_dns'. This actually removes any existing 'dns.keytab' 
from the private and bind-dns dirs, it then goes on to create the keytab 
via the commit, but only in the private dir.

Now to consider how to create the keytab in the bind-dns dir, is it that 
the incorrect path is being passed ? Or just move it to the correct 
destination (does anything rely on the dns.keytab being in the private 
dir ?), or do something else ?
