samba - May 2021 - What is wrong in my Samba setup?

Thanks.
If something like "jason" is illegal, then why in Windows DC, domain
names don't have any prefix? For example, a Windows domain could be
"MYNETWORKDOMAIN.CCC".

To be perfectly legal, you shouldn't use 'jason.com' at all. You
could
use something like 'jason.samdom.tld'.

'jason' isn't illegal, it is the context that you were asking about,
'jason.com' is a registered dns domain, so you shouldn't use it as
your
base dns domain. You shouldn't use any registered dns domain directly as 
an AD dns domain, you should use a subdomain of this, from your example 
above, it could be something like 'jason.mynetworkdomain.ccc'. There is 
probably an existing dns server for the 'mynetworkdomain.ccc' and the DC
must be authoritative for its dns domain and it cannot be if there is an 
existing dns server.
