samba - Jun 2015 - Using isc-dhcp for DDNS with Samba4 internal DNS

Hello,

    Is it possible to use isc-dhcp for DDNS with Samba internal DNS? I
would rather not use bind as I understand you can't use Windows DNS tool
to manage. Thanks.

Unless a lot as changed (and I don't think it has) I couldn't get dhcp 
to update the internal dns server, but it will update Bind9. This is 
what I have been using since samba4 was released, with only minor 
problems, usually of my own making. I can also manage DNS with the 
windows tools, not that it needs much managing :-)

If you use BIND9-DLZ, the zone data is stored in Active Directory, and can 
be managed by the Windows DNS tools.

Well, that's one way of doing it, it's not the way I do it, nearly, but 
with a lot of differences, I don't use samba-tool for instance.
