[Samba] Bind, DHCPD and Samba

[Adam Williams]

is your smb server using dhcp?  if so, google on dhclient on how to send 
the machine name.  if the smb server uses static ip, then do rndc freeze 
zonename, edit the dns zone file by hand and update the serial, reload 
named, then do rndc unfreeze zonename.
