It would be great if you could provide some details about the problems
and about the steps to solve it.

Currently I'm very busy, but I'll collect that information and try to
find a good place for it in our documentation as soon as possible.

Easy job with the right tool!

Open Apache Directory Studio, select the LDAP browser -> New Connection

Enter the server/hostname: dc1.samdom.com -> next
Select simple authentication, user: samdom\administrator, password
Check authentication and connect. 

Browse to the corresponding DNS entry:

LDAP-Browser
Root DSE
	DC=DomainDnsZones,DC=samdom,DC=com
		CN=MicrosoftDNS
			DC=1.168.192.in-addr.arpa
				DC=21

See the attribute dnsRecord (here: two of them), which is binary data. 
A double click opens a hex editor, a right clock opens the context 
menu, which allows to delete the offending entry. Delete - and done. 

Thank You again Sebastian for the great tip. 
Maybe LAM would have done the job, too. But it was extremely easy
in Apache Directory Studio. 

Best regards
Peter
