[Samba] Samba4 AD with bind DNS / TKEY is unacceptable

[Stefan Schäfer]

Hello,

after resolving my problem (more or less), i try to migrate an W2k3 SBS. 
Here i found new but similar problems. It seems that the LDAP Structure 
for the DNS Zones of a SBS is different from w2k3 standard or enterprise.

It seems that the BIND9_DLZ  driver, samba-tool and samba_dnsupdate have 
problems with this structure. We switched the DNS to samba internal. 
After this resolving names is possible:

s4ad:~ # dig @localhost  s4ad.xxxx.local

; <<>> DiG 9.9.3-P2 <<>> @localhost s4ad.xxxx.local
; (2 servers found)
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:

;; ANSWER SECTION:
s4ad.xxxx.local. 900   IN      A       192.168.1.10

...but using samba-tool didn't work:

The Samba Logfile shows:

It seems, that samba-tool and samba_dnsupdate didn't know where to find 
the DNS Zones in the LDAP DID of the SBS LDAP-Structure.

Does anybody knows this behavior or any workarounds?
