I wouldn't know why, I didn't make any changes in this respect.

Yes, it is starting resolved but that was always the case. Resolved reads
from the network file and adds the correct nameserver (itself) and search
string (samdom.example.com).
Just to rule out resolved as the culprit, I now disabled resolved entirely
and created a static resolv.conf file, then rebooted the server.
After doing all of this, this is the Samba log:
