Interesting. Are Forest and Domain records being replicated in both
directions from all DCs? It always worked from the WinDC to the S4DC but
not in the other direction. Also, were you able to use the WIN DNS MMC
to examine the DNS records on any of the Samba DCs? If so, you are
probably close to having it working; something I never managed to do.
See ya...

Thanks for such quick reply,
I have just executed "samba-tool drs showrepl" command and it seems
that Forest and Domain LDAP DIT are being replicated successfully.
But I still doubt that it can not be fixed since all RR records that
are added to w2k3 server are successfully propagated and present. All
name resolution queries on samba reflect the state of w2k3 DNS.
Is there some way to debug RPC calls so that we can more precisely
locate the error?
All best,

This issue has been discussed at length before with no resolution to
my knowledge. If you use "samba-tool drs showrepl", you will probably
notice that Forest and Domain DNS is not being replicated to/from all
DCs. Additionally, if you use Win2003 DNS MMC, you will not be able
to detect that DNS is running on the Samba DCs nor that they are DCs
at all. I have only tested this using internal Samba DNS but have
found no workaround and have dropped trying to use Samba to
demote/replace a Win2003 DC for now.
Good luck,

Hello,
i have an issue with existing installation of samba4 domain controller
that is specific to dns managment.
In the domain I have two samba4 4.0.7 and one windows 2003 server
that I
plug periodically to manage the dns.
All fsmo roles are transfered to samba.
All aspects of the domain work perfectly, except one, the samba-tool
dns
commands do not work.
All commands when executed on samba server return "ERROR(runtime):
uncaught exception - (9717, 'WERR_DNS_ERROR_DS_UNAVAILABLE')" error.
The
same command pointed to windows server works fine.
All commands that add hosts to window are replicated to samba
instances.
The domain is functioning at 2003 native level (reported by windows
tool), but samba can't figure out the level.
Also when i try to demote the w2k3 server i get the error that "Active
Directory could not find another domain controller to transfer the
remaining data in the directory partition
DC=DomainDnsZones,Dc=example,dc=com"
Could you please point me to the right resources so that i can resolve
my current issues.
Thanks in advance, and I wish best to all Samba community.
ps
If you need some kind of help, such as testing rc's in certain
configuration, please contact me.
