Someone has a very borked email client (either that, or there is a sale
on for blank lines) :-D

I suggest you remove these lines from the smb.conf:

 passwd chat = *Enter\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n
*Retype\snew\s*\spassword: * %n\n *password\supdated\ssuccessfully* .
 passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
 unix password sync = Yes

They are only meant for a standalone server.

Change /etc/resolv.conf to this:

search ap.media.global.loc
nameserver AD_DC_IPADDRESS (repeat for all DCs in the
ap.media.global.loc dns domain)

If this Unix domain members hostname is 'ubuntu' replace '127.0.1.1
ubuntu' in /etc/hosts with:

127.0.1.1 ubuntu.ap.media.global.loc ubuntu

If it isn't 'ubuntu' then replace 'ubuntu' with the computers 'FQDN
shorthostname'
Remove the last two lines from /etc/hosts

If you are going to use multiple domains, you will need to use
'trusts'.
