OK, sorry to be so long in getting back to you, been to get my first 
covid vaccination 😁

Do you have this dn in AD:

DC=_kerberos._tcp.dc,DC=_msdcs.XXX.lan,CN=MicrosoftDNS,DC=DomainDnsZones,DC=XXX,DC=lan

Or this one:

DC=_kerberos._tcp.dc,DC=_msdcs.XXX.lan,CN=MicrosoftDNS,DC=ForestDnsZones,DC=XXX,DC=lan
