Is this using the ZFS filesystem ?

If so, how ?

What do you mean by 'a prebuilt samba410-4.10.13 package was installed'
?

Did you provision a new DC or join an existing domain, or something else ?

Samba installs the required files at provision or join, provided you 
tell samba-tool to do it.

It isn't really Samba's responsibility, it is yours, but if you
didn't
do it at provision or join, then you can run 'samba_upgradedns'.

One thing I should point out, Samba isn't aware of Bind 9.14 (yet), so 
when it comes to the named.conf that is created for you, use the last 
version (9.12) instead.

To install a package FreeBSD you can either compile it from scratch, or
install as a binary built by someone else.

My server does not use the ZFS system. And it was provisioned into an
existing domain.

"Samba installs the required files"
"samba_upgradedns"
"use the last
> version (9.12) instead"
is all music to my ears, especially "samba_upgradedns." Your kind
reply
prevents me from "barking up the wrong tree," and wasting time
searching
for answers in ISC-Bind instead of samba.

Yes, I know, but it sounded like you either plonked a copy of another DC 
on your system (which wouldn't work) or you just installed Samba and 
wrote your own smb.conf

So, it is using UFS

I do hope you meant 'joined' instead of
'provisioned'.

Yes on both counts. It uses UFS and it was joined to an existing domain.
