I have configured my samba system to use bind_dlz, and it works great, I 
do have a question about workstation initiated DNS updates.

When I do a ipconfig /registerdns I get.

20-Mar-2014 11:20:36.347 samba_dlz: starting transaction on zone 
corp.mydomain.com

samba_dnsupdate works great.

So when it flags the 'insufficient access rights' which rights is it 
referring to, AD rights, NAMED permissions...?

Do I need to change permissions for Domain Computers to allow these updates?
