Hi everyone,

unfortunately, I managed to break my Samba AD DC configuration :-( and 
would like to ask the experts on this list.

When restarting my Samba AC DC I noticed, that it didn't come up 
properly. samba outputs the following lines to /var/log/syslog

> Nov 24 12:46:52 addc01 samba[30784]: /usr/sbin/samba_dnsupdate: 
> RuntimeError: kinit for ADDC01$@MYDOMAIN.LAN failed (Cannot contact 
> any KDC for requested realm)
>
> Nov 24 12:46:52 addc01 samba[30784]: 
> ../source4/dsdb/dns/dns_update.c:294: Failed DNS update - 
> NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED
>

I followed the Samba wiki pages

<https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Testing_Dynamic_DNS_Updates>

and found that the dynanic DNS update doesn't work

> root at addc01:~# samba_dnsupdate --verbose --all-names
> IPs: ['192.168.6.8']
> Traceback (most recent call last):
>   File "/usr/sbin/samba_dnsupdate", line 621, in <module>
>     get_credentials(lp)
>   File "/usr/sbin/samba_dnsupdate", line 125, in get_credentials
>     raise e
> RuntimeError: kinit for ADDC01$@MYDOMAIN.LAN failed (Cannot contact 
> any KDC for requested realm)
>

I also carried out the basic checks from 
<https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setting_up_Samba_as_an_Active_Directory_Domain_Controller>, 


where the lookup of the DNS Service Resource Records doesn't work as well

> root at addc01:~# host -t SRV _ldap._tcp.mydomain.lan
> Host _ldap._tcp.mydomain.lan not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

> root at addc01:~# host -t SRV _kerberos._udp.mydomain.lan
> Host _kerberos._udp.mydomain.lan not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

The confusing fact is, that I *can* obtain tickets from the KDC on the 
command line

> root at addc01:~# kinit Administrator at MYDOMAIN.LAN
> Password for Administrator at MYDOMAIN.LAN:
> root at addc01:~# klist
> Ticket cache: FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_0
> Default principal: Administrator at MYDOMAIN.LAN
>
> Valid starting       Expires              Service principal
> 24.11.2016 12:46:04  24.11.2016 22:46:04 krbtgt/MYDOMAIN.LAN at MYDOMAIN.LAN
>         renew until 25.11.2016 12:46:00

but not via the Python script samba_dnsupdate.

I can't tell if this is a Kerberos or a DNS issue.

My /etc/krb.conf looks like this

> root at addc01:~# cat /etc/krb5.conf
> [logging]
>     default = FILE:/var/log/krb5.log
>
> [libdefaults]

Basic name service does work as well:

The AD DC runs on ubuntu 16.04 LTS with Samba packages from their 
repository (at the moment Version 4.3.11-Ubuntu) . I provisioned the DC 
with the command

> samba-tool domain provision --use-rfc2307 --function-level=2008_R2 --dns-backend=BIND9_DLZ ...

My internet searches didn't help to solve my problem, therefore any new 
ideas would be highly appreciated.

Many thanks in advance

Udo
