[Samba] AD order of installation

[Mark Foley]

Unless you are specifying by IP, NTP isn't going to resolve with e.g.
0.pool.ntp.org if you don't have DNS running. Personal Experience.

If you're using Samba's builtin DNS (I don't), then seems to me NTP should be
last on your list.

Of course, ntp can temporarily resolve using /etc/resolv.conf until you get your
DNS running. My issue was mostly an order of startup versus order of installation.
