I believe I answered it albeit indirectly. One of the first steps of joining a 
domain as a DC was to run the kinit command and upon success proceed with 
joining the domain. Since I wasn't getting any output from running that 
command, I stopped and didn't go any further with joining the domain because I 
thought there was something wrong. I wasn't aware that I had to run klist in 
Ubuntu in order to get the output that I needed. Once I did that, I went ahead 
and followed the steps to join the domain and I was able to get it working. Now 
I have a smb.conf file like I should. However, now I have a few other questions 
if you could be so kind to answer. When I pointed one of the windows machines 
to use the samba 4 DC as its DNS server, I was able to resolve hosts in the 
mydomain.local domain. However, I wasn't able to resolve hosts outside my 
domain. A Windows DNS server is able to do that. Is this behavior because I'm 
not using Bind with the samba 4 DC but instead I'm using the int
 ernal samba DNS? What do I need to do to rectify that?

I'm also assuming that I should use 127.0.0.1 or the IP of the samba 4 DC as 
the DNS server of the samba 4 DC in /etc/network/interfaces file vs. pointing 
to the Windows DC. Is that a correct assumption?

And finally, rebooting the server does not automatically start samba. I have to 
start it manually. Do I need to create a script in /etc/init.d/ and if that's 
the case, is there a template for that somewhere?

Thanks in advance.
