If you had a previous AD domain, you must have had a FQDN, but having 
said that, it does look like you have a configuration error somewhere, 
so can you post the contents of the following files:

/etc/hostname

/etc/hosts

/etc/resolv.conf

/etc/krb5.conf

/etc/samba/smb.conf

/etc/bind/named.conf

/etc/bind/named.conf.options

/etc/bind/named.conf.local

/var/lib/samba/bind-dns/named.conf

If you must sanitise them, then do it sanely, use 'example.com' for the 
domain name and use the case you find in the file ;-)
