Joining a member server "succeeds" but also gives this DNS error. --- # net ads join -U administrator Password for [AD\administrator]: Using short domain name -- AD Joined 'ABC-1' to dns domain 'ad.xyz.local' DNS Update for abc-1.ad.xyz.local failed: ERROR_DNS_UPDATE_FAILED DNS update failed: NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL --- (DNS works fine on the member server. All tests resolving DC names, and the srv records complete fine.) A search turns up this in the Wiki; https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Troubleshooting_Samba_Domain_Members#DNS_Update_failed:_ERROR_DNS_UPDATE_FAILED Which suggests checking DDNS on the server. And running: samba_dnsupdate --verbose --all-names Returns a bunch of: TSIG error with server: tsig verify failure Which further searches seem to indicate you can safely ignore. So, I've got ahold of my tail now and I'm wildly confused! :) Suggestions?
