[Samba] DHCP Updates to DNS - Multiple Entries with Same IP

Thank you to Rowland, L.P.H. van Belle, the entire samba team, and others that
help. I've been running samba in our fire department for over a year.

I'm running a self compiled samba version 4.11.9, bind version 9.11.3,
BIND9_DLZ, isc-dhcp-server version 4.3.5 with fail over (between the 2 DC's)
on Ubuntu 18.04 on Odroid N2 aarch64. I have 2 identical DC's on the network
FDDC10 (172.20.10.70)& FDDC11 (172.20.10.71)

I'm having difficulties with dhcpd updating DNS entries.

In the journal I see this:

....

When I look in DNS in my Forward Lookup Zone via Windows 10 I have multiple A
Host records with the
same ip address but the names are like this:

Aarons-iPad Host(A) 172.20.10.152 static
Aarons-iPadCNF:134dd19a-e0fd-4230-8108-40b4ae3328d9 Host(A) 172.20.10.152 static
Aarons-iPadCNF:156181c7-c420-409d-ab88-40c56f6b1c88 Host(A) 172.20.10.152 static
..... - currently there are 13 such entries & there are similar records for
other hosts.

The same multiple PTR records are present in the Reverse Lookup Zone.

I followed the samba wiki
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Configure_DHCP_to_update_DNS_records_with_BIND9
and have modified
/etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf as noted in the wiki. I have the dhcp-dyndns.sh script
copied from the wiki. I
did have to add absolute paths for the samba and samba-tool commands as this is
self-compiled and
installed to /usr/local/samba. Also,note that on Ubuntu 18.04 aarch64,
isc-dhcp-server runs as
dhcpd:dhcpd

This seems to be happening with iphone/ipads (wireless) but also HP printers
that are all wired.

Does anybody have any suggestions?

Thanks for any assistance.

It looks like your clients are trying to update their own records, you 
only need the script if some or all of your clients cannot update their 
own records, but, if you use the script, you must stop the clients from 
trying to update their own records.

Thanks for the response.

I had the script running on both of the dhcp servers (they are setup
with failover), and I had a lot of thses CNF entries in DNS.

So as a test, I removed the script from fddc11 and the problem with all
of the extra DNS entries has stopped. Hosts are showing up in both DNS
servers as I had hoped. I will run like this for a while and see how it
goes.

I had exactly the same issue with dual dhcp servers. I solved it by
modifying the script to do conditional updates. I.e. only add the A/PTR
entries if they are not already present.

This works for me, but I have no idea if this is best practice for Active
Directory. I suppose a race condition with simultaneous updates is still
possible, but so far I have no more CNF records. My case is a home network
with <50 dhcp clients, so ymmv.

Now that is a good idea, why didn't I think of it ;-)

I have identified a slight bug with the 'add' part, if you reboot a 
client and it releases the IP, then when the the client comes up and the 
script is run, it claims the update has failed, even though it has 
succeeded. I have a fix.

The problem with the 'failover' is down to using '128' on both
DC's,
this leads to both of them replying to requests, I will update the 
wikipage to use '255' on the primary and '0' on the secondary.
This
should lead to only one (the primary) replying unless the primary goes down.
