Hello Marc,
Yeah, only Windows DC's left. Customer wanted this way.
I can resolve all those records using nslookup. However, when pointing clients to the new DNS server, they just don't "re-map" to new domain controllers. New client PC's domain join work OK.
Cheers,

You're only having Windows DCs left?
May I ask why you migrated from Samba AD to Windows?
It sounds like the _ldap DNS record is missing, Windows uses to locate the DC. Can you please verify that all required _ldap/_kerberos records exist in the correct zones. For some examples, see:
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setting_up_Samba_as_an_Active_Directory_Domain_Controller#Verifying_DNS
or because you are no longer a Samba user: ;-) https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc961719.aspx
If all required records exist and logging in still fails, I continue guessing that it is DNS related:
- At least one of the Windows DCs runs a DNS server?
- The clients are using the DNS on the Windows DC?
Test by running on a client
