[Samba] DNS PTR update fails if IP is reused by another client

I have re-installed Windows 10 on one of my domain client machines, and it has received the same IP address as before.   I renamed the machine and joined it to the domain.  But I am now getting log messages like this:

 

Dec 11 09:42:32 rpi3-dc named[477172]: samba_dlz: disallowing update of signer=LION\$\@MICROLYNX.ORG name=79.2.168.192.in-addr.arpa type=PTR error=insufficient access rights

 

Searching the web for clues I found this web page:

 

https://forge.univention.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39806

 

which seems the same problem I am experiencing.   So could tombstone records be causing this?   If so is there a workaround?

 

I have checked the permissions on the reverse zone and Authenticated Users has rights to create child objects.    I added Domain Computers as well to make sure (as I believe Domain Computers are members of Authenticate Users) but that did not resolve the issue.

 

The DC is running samba version 4.15.2 on Debian Bullseye with bind_dlz dns backend.  Bind9 is version 9.16.22-Debian

 

Thanks,

 

Roy
