If you created DNS it means you want to have fully qualified domain within your network
Name > ipaddress reverse IP > name to distinguish you user in you network.

theres a lot of advantage when using DNS. kindly check this site

if you want your user to login you must joint their pc to the domain you are created.
do you already have a domain a pdc.? in your zentyal server

Hi Zolf,

I'm a bit confused - why are we trying to add users and setup a Primary Domain Controller?  Maybe I missed something, is the original problem resolved?  I.E, is your Zentyal machine able to surf the web (or ping google.com)?  If not, I would suggest fixing this before setting up the PDC.  Also, is your public IP address assigned dynamically, or is it static?  I should imagine it is dynamic but please confirm.

Cheers,
Andy
