I meant to include that in my original description.  Samba is definitely
listening for the DNS requests.  Here it is:

$ netstat -npl | grep 53 | grep LISTEN
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:53                0.0.0.0:*

I am not able to get the Samba4 internal DNS server to respond to DNS
requests on the network.

I am running Samba4 4.1.0pre1-GIT-c1fb37d on my CentOS 6.3 system.  I
followed the instructions here:
https://wiki.samba.org/index.**php/Samba_AD_DC_HOWTO<https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_AD_DC_HOWTO>

I configured Samba4 to use the internal DNS server.  My Samba4 server is
192.168.0.13. Its full hostname is ubuntu-ad.allenlan.net.  The realm is
ALLENLAN.NET.

The DNS testing section of the document passes:

$host -t SRV _ldap._tcp.allenlan.net.
      _ldap._tcp.allenlan.net has SRV record 0 100 389
ubuntu-ad.allenlan.net.
$host -t SRV _kerberos._udp.allenlan.net.
      _kerberos._udp.allenlan.net has SRV record 0 100 88
ubuntu-ad.allenlan.net.
$host -t A ubuntu-ad.allenlan.net.
      ubuntu-ad.allenlan.net has address 192.168.0.13

I configured my Windows XP system with a DNS of 192.168.0.13 (Samba4
server).
When I perform the Windows command "nslookup ubuntu-ad.allenlan.net" (or
any variation of that) it reports:
      DNS request timed out.
          timeout was 2 seconds.
      *** Can't find server name for address 192.168.0.13: Timed out
      (above 3 messages repeat again)
      Default servers are not available
      Server: UnKnown
      Address: 192.168.0.13

The Windows system can ping the Samba4 server by IP address.

Any help would be appreciated!  More configuration information below.

/etc/resolv.conf:
domain allenlan.net
nameserver 192.168.0.13

/usr/local/samba/etc/smb.conf:
[global]
          workgroup = ALLENLAN
          realm = ALLENLAN.NET
          netbios name = UBUNTU-AD
          server role = active directory domain controller
          dns forwarder = 192.168.0.1
          interfaces = 192.168.0.13 127.0.0.1
          bind interfaces only = yes
          log level = 3
          server services = smb, rpc, nbt, wrepl, ldap, cldap, kdc, drepl,
winbind, ntp_signd, kcc, dnsupdate, dns

/etc/hosts:
192.168.0.13    ubuntu-ad       ubuntu-ad.allenlan.net
127.0.0.1   localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4
localhost4.localdomain4
::1         localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6

$hostname
ubuntu-ad.allenlan.net

Thank you.

Hi, What does 'netstat -npl | grep 53 | grep LISTEN' return?

Hi, I thought that there may have been a possibility that dnsmasq was running, the only other thoughts I have are:
How did you provision?
Is the firewall blocking port 53?
And that good old favourite, Selinux!
