[Samba] Demoted dc not completely demoted, maybe?

[Robert Wooden]

I have manually removed all entries of the demoted DC with the exception of
the SOA record.

The DNS Manager (offered by RSAT) will not allow adjustment of the SOA
record.

I have begun searching for a linux solution.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
