[Samba] Reverse dns lookup with internal DNS

[Olivier Weinstoerffer]

Hi,

with the restarts it works.
A second problem: when I add an host in the forward zone, and I check the
checkbox "add corresponding PTR" the command succeed but I didn't find the
PTR anywhere. (also not after restart)
do you have an Idea?

thanks
Olivier
