samba - Jan 2014 - Creating maching trust accounts

Hello,

I have created a machine trust account with the following command 
'pdbedit -a -m -u machinename' and I noticed that after I execute the 
following command 'pdbedit -L -v -u machinename', the Unix username is 
in lowercase letters? Because when I attempt to join a domain with a 
Windows 8.1 machine, it emits a error that it can't find the Machine 
account? Does it matter if the machinename is in capitals or lowercase ?

I just ran into another problem, which could be the cause of the issue 
abouve, I didn't realize that after migrating from 192.168.10.2 to 
192.168.1.1, the dns entries would be out of date. In the mean time, I 
can't seem to find a reliable way to update the DNS entry with a new 
IP?. In the mean time, I will be fool around with 'samba-tool dns..'
