I'm using BIND9_FLATFILE and able to join windows machines and have DNS updates working but Linux machines join with DNS update errors. Is there additional configuration necessary on Linux for the machines' NICs to be seen as valid? -- Sent from Gmail Mobile

There are vey many posts on this subject on this list and over on samba-technical. The workaround is to use a script, usually in association with your dhcpd to accomplish the update. -- Any question is easy if you know the answer!

When LINUX / Samba boxes are joined to the domain there is a DNS error and the record is not published. Windows clients join the domain without an issue.
