If the AD dns domain is 'domain.tld' and 'xmpp' is a computer
hostname,
then yes.

It sounds like the pfsense machine is running as some form of 
caching/forwarding server and this should forward all requests for the 
AD dns domain to the AD DC's.

Of course. I was influenced by a particular case I have here and I 
interpreted 'xmpp' as being a subdomain.

Yes, this sort of shows what a lack of information can cause, I read it 
as a FQDN and you read it as a subdomain ;-)
