samba - Aug 2021 - DC controller and DNS

?? Ok now you have me confused. Which is understandable considering we are
dealing with windows.
 ?? Yes I read the wiki. I read just about everything I could before 
asking for help.
 ??? I setup up a test DC1 and DC2 and everything is working fine there. 
With the
same configuration. But there is no bind on the DC servers. I got into 
trouble with
bind running on the same machine as the samba DC.
 ? ?? Yes I am talking about a standard bind zone file. I believe my 
issue is not the zone
file but in how to run bind and the DC controller on the same machine 
without port 53
conflicting.? Do I need to setup the BIND9_DLZ Module?

Bind9 will only be on a Samba DC if you installed it, but there is an
internal dns server built into a Samba AD DC, this is the default.

You would, you have to turn off the internal Samba dns server if you
use bind9.

If the zone file is what is known as a flat file (the standard bind9
zone file), then you cannot use them, you must the files in AD.
