The syntax is:

samba-tool dns add <server> <zone> <name> NS fqdn_string

In your instance <server> is mydc, <zone> is 21.168.192.in-addr.arpa, 
<name> is '@', the fqdn_string is mydc.mydomain.lan

You will also need to add a user with the required permissions, '-P' is 
probably not enough, so '-Uadministrator' will have the correct permissions.
