[Samba] Samba 4 internal DNS - how to modify SOA record

[Rustam K.]

Hi,

thanks for the follow up.

I found the SOA record via ADSI edit :

DC=@,DC=officenet.local,CN=MicrosoftDNS,DC=DomainDnsZones,DC=officenet,DC=local
DC=@,DC=_msdcs.officenet.local,CN=MicrosoftDNS,DC=ForestDnsZones,DC=officenet,DC=local

there are two of them,and every one of them has attribute dnsRecord which
is in hex, and it has string "srv-alfa" (apart from hostmaster email ttl
etc) which I need to change to "alfadc"

4E 00 06 00 05 F0 00 00 BE 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 1C 30 37 00 00
00 00 BE 00 00 03 84 00 00 02 58 00 01 51 80 00 00 00 00 1A 03 08 73 72 76
2D 61 6C 66 61 09 6F 66 66 69 63 65 6E 65 74 05 6C 6F 63 61 6C 00 1C 03 0A
68 6F 73 74 6D 61 73 74 65 72 09 6F 66 66 69 63 65 6E 65 74 05 6C 6F 63 61
6C 00

This is where I am headed, and I'll try not to screw it up.
