OK, first the good news, your zentyal is running Samba as an AD DC, now 
for the bad news:

It is also running another kdc on port 8880 and slapd on port 390.

Now for the really bad news, it is also using the pre 2008 dns.

I think you will have to 'walk' your zentyal up the Samba versions until 
you get the latest dns version, though I am not sure about this, never 
had to do this.

It might just be easier to start again with a new domain.
