  And if its used, then its because the 2 above are failing 
  and 127.0.0.53 most probely will query them or root servers on the internet. 
  Resulting in both will fail..

Because some internal service do run in ::1 
this is fine.

If this was there at startup, then this might be the source of your problems.

Remove the DNS forwarders in smb.conf 
Reboot
Test again. 
Then if it now works. Re-add the dns forwarders. 


Beside the few points your config look fine. 
Im guessing the hostname was set to 127.0.1.1 when you started the ad-dc for the
first time.

[Samba] Samba DNS fails when queried with nslookup commands

Louis,

 ????? Couldn't figure out how to remove 127.0.0.53 from resolv.conf so 
I removed systemd-resolve per Rowlands post.? I then removed the 
forwarders from my smb.conf and rebooted. Nslookup partially worked as 
it used the other DC in the network to resolve and complained soldc4 
couldn't do recursive queries.? I added back in the forwarders and dns 
resolution appeared to work correctly except on soldc4. Except for one 
minor issue still remains. See output below.

@soldc4:~# nslookup soldc4
Server:???????? 172.16.23.30
Address:??????? 172.16.23.30#53

Non-authoritative answer:
*** Can't find soldc4: No answer

root at soldc4:~# nslookup soldc4.domain.local
Server:???????? 172.16.23.30
Address:??????? 172.16.23.30#53

Name:?? soldc4.domain.local
Address: 172.16.23.30

The issue now is since I disabled systemd-resolve it also removed my 
search domain from resolv.conf.

@soldc4:~$ cat /etc/resolv.conf
# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by 
resolvconf(8)
#???? DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
# 127.0.0.53 is the systemd-resolved stub resolver.
# run "systemd-resolve --status" to see details about the actual 
nameservers.
nameserver 172.16.23.30
nameserver 172.16.23.28

Where do I need to add my search domain as I already added to my netplan 
config and 50-cloud.init.yaml is the only file to config.

 ?ls -la /etc/netplan/
total 12
drwxr-xr-x?? 2 root root 4096 Aug 13 10:03 .
drwxr-xr-x 113 root root 4096 Aug 13 10:04 ..
-rw-r--r--?? 1 root root? 584 May 28 19:36 50-cloud-init.yaml

Thanks.

-James

This is sufficient. 

systemctl disable systemd-resolved 
systemctl mask systemd-resolved 

And it wont start again.

nslookup $(hostname -f) 
Should work.

So its in fqdn correct. 

If you want nslookup soldc4 to work, then you need the search line in
resolv.conf

rm /etc/resolv.conf 
editor /etc/resolv.conf 
search domain.local
nameserver 172.16.23.30
nameserver 172.16.23.28

Also one tip here, if you setup resolv.conf manualy 
Add : 
search domain.local
nameserver 172.16.23.28
nameserver 172.16.23.30

Reboot
Check the dns. 
If ok, then change : 
search domain.local
nameserver 172.16.23.30
nameserver 172.16.23.28
# Note, ad join DC1 is first, after join, you can switch the nameserver lines.

If you config through netplan is/was correct, then and you use systemd-resolved 
It should always be correct. 

But thats a choice, set resolv.conf manualy or set it in you network config. 

Currently, i preffer through systemd-networked its config.  ( on debian ) 
Ubuntu its default is netplan.


So far, 

Greetz, 

Louis

>Everything is working as it should now.? One thing I will add that I did 
do differently is I remember from previous Ubuntu OS's I could modify 
the following file to permanently change resolv.conf

/etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head

I added the search domain there and resolv.conf shows my search domain.

 From my perspective nslookup is now resolving correctly and I believe 
the issue is resolved. Thanks again for yours and Rowlands help.
