The only difference is that samba uses a plain _ldap._tcp.domain.name while a Windows client _ldap._tcp.Default-First-Site-Name._sites.dc._msdcs.domain.name. I guess it will fall back to _ldap._tcp.domain.name if the other name cannot be resolved. *I would suggest to use _ldap._tcp.domain.name for the SSSD implementation*.

What exactly do you mean by the last sentence? That the order should be 
_ldap._tcp.domain.name and then msdcs version if not available?

Default-First-Site-Name can't be deleted or renamed?
