samba - Apr 2010 - Windows7 able to join Samba4-alpha12 domain, but unable to manage

Dear all,

after switching from Samba4-alpha10 to -alpha12, it is no longer 
possible to manage user accounts via the RSAT on Windows 7 Professional. 
The program says that name information can't be retrieved, because the 
domain controller isn't configured properly (or the like, I read it in 
German). However, joining the domain and logging in with administrator 
or simple user account is working perfectly.

Another, possibly connected, problem is that DNS dynamic updates don't 
work, because I'm unable to compile bind with gssapi support. (Slackware 
13 coming with a quite outdated bind 9.4 or something). I've found no 
how-to regarding this on the net and I'm quite out of my wits here.

Any hint would be appreciated,

This sounds very much like an issue solved in the past few weeks.
Perhaps try a current GIT snapshot?

I am trying to get another alpha release made, but I've not managed to
do it quite yet.
