Thanks for the reply Denis!
I tried upgrading samba and it said "2:4.3.11+dfsg-0ubuntu0.16.04.13"
is the latest version.
The RSAT DNS Manager fails to list the contents of the zone. It actually kills
the SMBD process when I try and I have to restart it. So I can't compare it
to Apache Directory Studio.
Is there some way to query the underlying samba DNS data store to find the most
recently added DNS entry?
I checked for but couldn't find krb4.conf so I guess I don't have
Kerberos configured. Being a fairly new linux/Samba user the zonedelete option
seems scary.
Thanks,
Robb

that's a quite old Samba version and it is EOL'ed. You really should
upgrade to latest 4.7, there are tons of bugfix since 4.3.

I have seen issues with corrupted DNS entries in earlier Samba version.
You could compare the zone between RSAT DNS console and Apache Directory Studio
connection (look in CN=MicrosoftDNS,DC=DomainDNSZone,DC=,DC=) and see what extra
spurious entry could lay in your DNS zone.
A more expeditive way is to delete and recreate the zone using the samba-tool
dns zonedelete / zonecreate. The SRV entries are recreated when the server
restart. You should just be careful about having your kerberos configuration
properly so it does not needs DNS to find its KDC (you can take a look at
krb5.conf file in [1] for inspiration). Then you'll have to recreate your
DNS entries in that clean'ed up zone.
Cheers,
Denis
