The active directory domain controller is also handling DNS for the domain.
A windows client will dynamically update its entry in the DNS server's
configuration when it joins the domain and every time it gets a new IP from
DHCP.
The linux box running samba doesn't know anything about dynamic DNS update.
Manually enter the samba server's name and static IP address in the windows
DNS.
