What do I do for my linux domain members?
Also, I just checked on my domain bound W10 machine. Under
Adapter Properties -> Internet Protocol version 4 (TCP/IPv4) ->
Advanced -> DNS Tab
"Register this connector's addresses in DNS" is checked, but
no go
on the reverse search:
root at samba-dc:~# host 192.168.1.83
Host 83.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa. not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
If nothing uses the reverse search, I'm not going to worry about it.
