Very probably, if you have three DC's, then they should all be shown by
your command.
Does every DC have an /etc/resolv.conf that looks like this:
search wdc,domain.it
nameserver THE_DC_IP
where 'THE_DC_IP' is the ipaddress of the DC.
There is script 'samba_dnsupdate' that should run at Samba startup and
then every 10 minutes, this uses a file called 'dns_update_list' and
should create/maintain several dns records for the DC in AD, amongst
them are the DC's A and NS records.
