[Samba] Cannot join Windows XP Pro to new Samba 4 AD

Figures ... I had to restart samba after adding the zone. Now adding A and PTR records appears to work correctly.

I checked and the Windows XP systems have unique SIDS, so I can hopefully rule out that issue. 

So .. since it is just a few commands to rebuild the domain, I deleted the data in private, restarted my ldap and re-ran the classicupgrade command. Then, after disabling the dns, smb and restarting, I tested dns. However, while I can resolve the hostname to an IP address, the reverse lookup doesn't work. Should it? 

/usr/local/samba/etc> nslookup ncssamba1 
Server: 10.179.2.25 
Address: 10.179.2.25#53 

Name: ncssamba1.ncs.k12.de.us 
Address: 10.179.2.25 

/usr/local/samba/etc> nslookup 10.179.2.25 
Server: 10.179.2.25 
Address: 10.179.2.25#53 

Non-authoritative answer: 
*** Can't find 25.2.179.10.in-addr.arpa.: No answer 

Authoritative answers can be found from: 
10.in-addr.arpa 
origin = doverkdc001.k12.de.us 
mail addr = hostmaster.k12.de.us 
serial = 179241 
refresh = 900 

So I tried to add the zone, but still it does not resolve correctly 

/usr/local/samba/etc> samba-tool dns zonecreate ncssamba1.ncs.k12.de.us 179.10.in-addr.arpa 
Zone 179.10.in-addr.arpa created successfully 
/usr/local/samba/etc> samba-tool dns add ncssamba1.ncs.k12.de.us 179.10.in-addr.arpa 25.2 PTR ncssamba1 
Record added successfully 
/usr/local/samba/etc> nslookup 10.179.2.25 
Server: 10.179.2.25 
Address: 10.179.2.25#53 

Non-authoritative answer: 
*** Can't find 25.2.179.10.in-addr.arpa.: No answer 

Authoritative answers can be found from: 
10.in-addr.arpa 
origin = doverkdc001.k12.de.us 
mail addr = hostmaster.k12.de.us 
serial = 179242 
refresh = 900 
retry = 600 
expire = 86400 
minimum = 3600 

What am I doing incorrectly? How do I get the reverse lookups to work so that ncssamba1 is authoritative for the 10.179 range?

Thanks! I have the Windows systems using a centralized time server but they were imaged. I'll check on the issue with the SID since I didn't do the images.

im thinking.. 


Time problems, OR, u used an XP image, which was not syspreped on all your pc's. 
( aka, all your pc's have the same SID ) 

Yes, for samba3 this was not a problem, samba4 it is.
