I've looked at options (and the link you posted) but i'm a bit puzzled.

Reading the (un)menaningful explanation, seems to me that by default
the DC locator have to prefere local DC (that have cost 0) insted of
remote ones (that have cost 100 or more).

I've enabled 'try next closest site' but seems to me is not the
solution...

Still i've not clear how this stanza have to do with dns and windows
client, but... i'll add. ;-)
