Hai James, 

What is the connection's DNS suffix of the pc?
And did you setup TLS in you samba? 


Look here, in the advanded tcp settings of the pc.  ( or ipconfig /all )

And is it ticked "Use this connections dns suffix in dns registration" 
(In dhcp option 81.)

Or use Group policy editors. 
- Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Network\DNS Client
	-Connection Specific DNS Suffix: enabled, and set to your.domain.tld
	-Register DNS records with connection-specific DNS suffix: enabled
	-Register PTR Records: enabled
	-Dynamic Update: enabled

Or use static ips, then A and PTR are registered by the computer. 

Key is to remember, Windows uses the connection-specific DNS suffix to register DNS records.


Greetz, 

Louis
