[Samba] Internal DNS CNAME not working

[Wayne Andersen]

I upgraded to 4.0.4 and still did not have any success with CNAME records.
As it turns out the problem was the syntax I was using to create the 
records.
You need to include the full domain name and the period at the end.

I think the samba-tool should validate these CNAME records when adding.
Does anyone think that this raises to the level of a bug?
