Created attachment 8975 [details] Debug level 10 output of 'samba_dnsupdate' Situation: - Two DC (both with BIND backend) in the domain - DC1 (the one with all FSMO roles, etc.) is down - DC2 uses it's own DNS in resolv.conf When 'samba_dnsupdate' runs on DC2, in the logs the following appears: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/samba/sbin/samba_dnsupdate", line 507, in <module> get_credentials(lp) File "/usr/local/samba/sbin/samba_dnsupdate", line 120, in get_credentials creds.get_named_ccache(lp, ccachename) RuntimeError: kinit for DC2$@SAMDOM.EXAMPLE.COM failed (Cannot contact any KDC for requested realm) I'm not sure, if this is a problem. But maybe the error message can be beautified with a small patch, when you have time. :-)
I re-checked this with 4.5.0rc2: The problem does not exist anymore in this version. I close this bug report.
