 What zones are you slaving on your BIND server? There should be six:
 
 DomainDNSZones.example.com
 ForestDNSZones.example.com
 _msdcs.example.com
 _sites.example.com
 _tcp.example.com
 _udp.example.com
 
 If you have these six zones slaved on your BIND server, and these zones are 
 being transferred successfully, then there should be no problems. 
 
 What exactly does this mean?  I only have this:
 
 zone company.local {
   type slave;
   file company.local.cache;
   masters { 62.x.x.x; };
 };
 
 Should I instead have these six zones in the named.conf

That depends on whether they're declared as delegated subzones or included in 
the company.local zone. By default, the AD wizard will create just 
company.local and _msdcs.company.local as zones - the other subdomains are not 
separated into their own individual zones.

Thanks. Those 6 zones are subdomains to company.local so I guess they 
are covered.  What about the _msdcs.company.local, is that needed in slaves?
