That could be an understatement 😁

You posted:

However, this is what I'm seeing:
dn: 
DC=ad01.,DC=example.info,CN=MicrosoftDNS,DC=DomainDnsZones,DC=SAMDOM,DC=EXAMPLE,DC=COM
dn: 
DC=ad01.samdom,DC=EXAMPLE.COM,CN=MicrosoftDNS,DC=DomainDnsZones,DC=SAMDOM,DC=EXAMPLE,DC=COM

Followed by:

I believe the dns record should be:
DC=ad01,DC=samdom.example.com,CN=MicrosoftDNS,DC=DomainDnsZones,DC=samdom,DC=example,DC=com

But now you seem to talking about a record that should be:

CN=dns-ad01,CN=Users,DC=samdom,DC=example,DC=com

The  latter is created in one of two ways:

A) when you provision a new DC or join a DC with '--dns-backend=BIND9_DLZ'

B) upgrade from the internal dns server to BIND9_DLZ with samba_dnsupgrade

So which are we talking about ?

The dns user account or the computers dns record ?
