Setup DNS for Microsoft Active Directory

Hi everybody, I'm trying to solve a problem, really close to this one: Microsoft Active Directory using cPanel for non-Microsoft DNS? I would like to configure the DNS server to correctly forward all the records needed for a machine to join an Active Directory domain from a remote site; Has anybody ever faced (and solved) this problem? Till now I've created these records with no success (see the error given by a machine that tries to join the domain)
domain.mydomain.it. 3600 IN A aaa.bbb.ccc.dd _msdcs.domain.mydomain.it. 3600 IN A aaa.bbb.ccc.dd _ldap._tcp.domain.mydomain.it. 3600 IN SRV "Priorit": 0 Peso: 0 Porta : 389 Destinazione: server.domain.mydomain.it " _kerberos._tcp.domain.mydomain.it. 3600 IN SRV "Priorit": 0 Peso: 0 Porta : 88 Destinazione: server.domain.mydomain.it " _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.domain.mydomain.it. 3600 IN SRV "Priorit": 0 Peso: 0 Porta : 389 Destinazione: server.domain.mydomain.it " _kerberos._tcp.dc._msdcs.domain.mydomain.it. 3600 IN SRV "Priorit": 0 Peso: 0 Porta : 88 Destinazione: server.domain.mydomain.it " msdcs.domain.mydomain.it. 14400 IN A aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd _ldap._tcp.gc._msdcs.domain.mydomain.it. 3600 IN SRV "Priorit": 0 Peso: 100 Porta : 3268 Destinazione: server.domain.mydomain.it " server.domain.mydomain.it. 3600 IN A aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd _ldap._tcp.pdc._msdcs.domain.mydomain.it. 3600 IN SRV "Priorit": 0 Peso: 100 Porta : 389 Destinazione: server.domain.mydomain.it "
This is the error a windows 10 machine gives me trying to join the domain (trying to translate from italian): An error occurred: "DNS name is not available The query was executed for the record SRV _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.domain.mydomain.it The most common causes for this kind of error include: - DNS SRV records required for finding an Active Directory domain controller for the domain are not registered in the DNS"
Can anybody point me in any direction, I'm quiet lost here... Thank you

  Hello, The first step would be to use a website such as IntoDNS.com to verify the name servers used for the domain name are associated with IP addresses added to the cPanel server your domain is hosted on. If they do not, then you'd need to update the DNS records at the DNS host of the domain name, or consider switching the name servers to the ones provided by your hosting provider. Thank you.
