I need Bind so that dynamic dns will work with Linux clients. This was
OK in 4.0.5. Any ideas anyone? 

Provisioning with or moving to BIND9_DLZ produces the error:

 samba_upgradedns --dns-backend=BIND9_DLZ
Reading domain information
DNS accounts already exist
No zone file /usr/local/samba/private/dns/HH3.SITE.zone
