Good Afternoon,


I successfully joined an Ubuntu 14.04 server with Samba 4.1.9 to my existing domain. I want this server to become my Master, but before I attempt to seize roles, I have been double and triple checking all of the configuration files and DNS entries. I noticed that this server's dns serverinfo differs from the other three servers. For it's aipServerAddrs and aipListenAddrs, it shows the broadcast address of 255.255.255.255. If I view the properties in DNS Manager, it shows that it is listening on that address. How do I go about getting it to listen on the localhost again? Here is a copy of my serverinfo.... Any help is appreciated.
