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.

I appreciate all the responses. I do not want to lose the ability for
clients to update DNS. It appears I will if I follow the link posted.
Can someone post a tutorial link with using Bind? I was not aware it
could be managed by Windows DNS Tool. Thanks.

No, there's no problem, since the script waits 5 seconds in order to 
give the client time to update its record. And if the client doesn't do 
it, the the script will do it.
In fact you can ignore the section about the GPO.
I had to modify something in the dhcp configuration though, I cannot 
tell what now since the server is in a VLAN that's not accessible 
outside the office, and I'm not there right now.
