> (2) I need to ensure that DHCP is playing nicely with samba4.  How are DNS updates from the DHCP server propagated to samba4??  I've changed my BIND so that it no longer uses zone files for the local domain. Instead it uses the bind9 dlz driver that came with samba4.  If I understand correctly, this means that bind will now pass queries about the local domain off to samba.  So samba must be updated whenever a new DHCP lease is granted by the dhcp server.  Does the DLZ driver handle this, or does the DHCP server need to be configured to cause these updates to go directly to samba??

Hi,

The windows clients try to update their dns records themselves without 
the help of the dhcp server, for *nix clients I've seen some description 
how to configure isc-dhcp to update records on a Windows AD, which 
should apply to Samba as well, unfortunately I have no pointer to that 
document, but Google should find it. I have no personal experience with 
such setup, because I've decided to go with statically assigned 
addresses (based on MAC addresses).
