[Samba] Inconsistency in LSA database prevents me to edit DNS zone

Hi all

A few month ago I had to change the IP address of my DC running Samba 4 and
Bind 9 as backend, in a LXC container running Debian 8u2.

I followed this documentation
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Change_IP_address_of_an_Samba_AD_DC

The documentation was rather good, but I found it was incomplete while
updating the DNS entries with

samba_dnsupdate --verbose

I had to use the DNS management MMC console to update all entries
containing the old IP address of my DC, not mentioned in the errors
reported by the above command.

A few weeks later I wanted to add a DNS entry in the DNS server and all
attempts are rejected with the following message :




The Local Security Authority (LSA) database contains an internal
inconsistency


I workarounded the issue with samba-tool.

Today I wanted to do more complex DNS settings and I wish to use RSAT
instead of samba-tool.

This is the only issue I noticed so far. I'm created a few GPOs whithout
any issue, my domain members and SMB shares are working great too.

Do someone have an idea about this issue ?
