Hi!

I don't know how bind9 dlz modules work.  Can you please
check if adding

   database "dlopen /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/samba/bind9/dlz_bind9_18.so"

works?

 From what I observe, current version, 20, should be the same as 18 one
wrt the DLZ modules.

BTW, a few versions of this module, as shipped by samba, are built with
exactly the same options (except of the name), which is a bit funny, -
it should be the same file.  Earlier versions had differences, but since
version 14 or so, all files are identical.

Also, the dlz modules should be moved to samba-ad-dc package. But this
is a different issue.

Thanks,
