[Samba] Can't access DNS from RSAT

[Taylor Hammerling]

I found this page https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12807 which
seemed to have someone experiencing the same issue I am.
I tried adding "allow dcerpc auth level connect:dnsserver = yes" to my
smb.conf, rebooted the server, but still I get the an access denied message
in windows.
However, what is logged in the log.samba files has changed since adding
this option to my smb.conf.  it now shows

[2017/12/12 10:21:02.936834,  2]
../source4/rpc_server/dcerpc_server.c:1824(dcesrv_request)
  dcesrv_request: restrict access by min_auth_level[0x4] to [dnsserver]
with auth[type=0xa,level=0x2] on [ncacn_ip_tcp] from [ipv4:
172.28.9.100:49994]

when I try to open the DNS Management RSAT
