Thank you, everyone, for trying to help. These replies have me quite lost, though. I think you guys are going to let me have it, but I’m really needing help.

- I do not understand how my configuration went bad. Was it the options I added to "configure"? I have been using those options since I upgraded from an old version of samba distributed with Ubuntu 14.04 that was quite a few updates behind what was current. To get up-to-date, I used those options. They allowed me to overwrite Ubuntu’s Samba and use all the data files I already had in place. No one has attempted to install Ubuntu’s Samba over the compiled version since. It’s worked quite well for many subsequent updates - no issues. Until today, of course.

- I base all my actions off of what I read on the samba wiki to begin with. As far as I can tell: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Build_Samba_from_Source <https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Build_Samba_from_Source>, this is basically what I did. Yes, I added some options to configure (because of the reasons above), but do you really think this is what doomed me?

- I can compile Ubuntu’s bind from source to include what we need, but Ubuntu’s simplest installation of bind ("sudo apt-get install bind9") is a package that had support for DLZ backend left out.

- Bind 9 on an Ubuntu Server 14.04.5 LTS, standard issue:
BIND 9.9.5-3ubuntu0.11-Ubuntu (Extended Support Version) <id:f9b8a50e> built by make with '--prefix=/usr' '--mandir=/usr/share/man' '--infodir=/usr/share/info' '--sysconfdir=/etc/bind' '--localstatedir=/var' '--enable-threads' '--enable-largefile' '--with-libtool' '--enable-shared' '--enable-static' '--with-openssl=/usr' '--with-gssapi=/usr' '--with-gnu-ld' '--with-geoip=/usr' '--with-atf=no' '--enable-ipv6' '--enable-rrl' '--enable-filter-aaaa' 'CFLAGS=-fno-strict-aliasing -DDIG_SIGCHASE -O2'

- Bind 9 on an Ubuntu Server 14.04.5 LTS, me downloading the Ubuntu source and compiling so it includes support for DLZ Backend:

- Bob, are you referring to this page? https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setting_up_a_BIND_DNS_Server <https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setting_up_a_BIND_DNS_Server>

Thanks,
