I have built a second dtdc03 and joined to my first dtdc01. Thought all
was well but, discovered that reverse dns is not correct on second
dtdc03.

root at dtdc03:~# host dtdc03
dtdc03.dtshrm.dt has address 192.168.16.49
root at dtdc03:~# host 192.168.16.49
Host 49.16.168.192.in-addr.arpa. not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
root at dtdc03:~# nslookup dtdc03
Server: 192.168.16.49
Address: 192.168.16.49#53

Name: dtdc03.dtshrm.dt
Address: 192.168.16.49

root at dtdc03:~# nslookup 192.168.16.49
Server: 192.168.16.49
Address: 192.168.16.49#53

** server can't find 49.16.168.192.in-addr.arpa: NXDOMAIN

I tried to add the reverse zone (I may be doing this wrong but . . .)

root at dtdc03:~# samba-tool dns zonecreate dc 16.168.192.in-addr.arpa -U
administrator

dns_conn = dnsserver.dnsserver(binding_str, lp, creds)

I am not sure what this means?
