samba - Apr 2019 - Is possible use BIND9 as DNS Back End on a new Samba DC?

Hi everyone,

I have a question: is possible use BIND9 as DNS backend on a new Samba DC
that will join into a domain where there are Samba DCs are using Samba
Internal DNS server?

I know that is a trivial question for someone, but I've followed steps
described on wiki's topic "Joining a Samba DC to an Existing Active
Directory" and in "Preparing the Host for Joining the Domain"
section is
said I must finish "BIND9_DLZ DNS Back End" before I start the Samba
DC
service. In "BIND9_DLZ DNS Back End", more precisely in
"Configuring the
BIND9_DLZ Module" section, it is said to
edit /usr/local/samba/bind-dns/named.conf.

My issue is the /usr/local/samba/bind-dns/named.conf there isn't and the
wiki says file is created during the domain provisioning, join or classic
upgrade. How can I finish "BIND9_DLZ DNS Back End" task if there
isn't /usr/local/samba/bind-dns/named.conf?

Are you using distro packages ?
If so, it will not be in /usr/local/samba. The wiki is written from the
point of view of a self compiled version of Samba, this would put all
of Samba in /usr/local/samba, distro's typically split Samba into
various directories, so you could try looking into /var/lib/samba

Earlier versions of Samba put the file into the 'private' dir

What distro and packages are you using ?

Hi Rowland,

Thanks for your reply.

I'm using Samba 4.10.2 compiled from source.
