[Samba] Bind Questions I know you are going to ask:

[L. van Belle]

Well, that bind isnt starting when you remove the flat file zone. 
that "is" correct. I tell you why that is.. 

what is also to be observced that, you need to replace the entries from
flatfile to bind_DLZ. 
so, why bind_dlz doesn't start, its trying to load a "non-existing" zone. 

The fix is, threat this as a new install. 
so, remove smb.conf, stop and provision samba. 

My thoughts where right here. 
starting samba without a "provisioned" zone in bind_dlz. 

now, after you have provisioned this server, repeat on the others. 
re-read : 
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setting_up_Samba_as_an_Active_Directory_Dom
ain_Controller 

if you need extra servers with dns services.  *( Not samba-ad-dc's, because
ad-dc's you just join in the domain. ) Just set a forwarding zone to the
AD-DC's or slave zones on these other servers. 

I hope this helps you. 

Greetz, 

Louis
