not that i have already joined 4 redhat server to windows AD but after that am facing this issue
i can the redhat server in windows AD comuputer but it is not automatically registering the dns records.
Do you have any of the RedHat systems configured with OpenLDAP?
That is the only possible destination to which password would propagate.
Which DNS update fails, the reverse host registration?  Check the /etc/smb.conf to see to which interface it is bound/sending the DNS registration events?

You have to have DNS on your AD, do you have non AD based Name server listed on the server/clients?

I.e. are you pushing external DNS servers to the client systems via DHCP?
Make sure on your DNS server to add the private network reverse zones to avoid having those registration attempts from being forwarded/sent out.

any update
Do you manually create a computer account for the redhat systems you will belonging within the AD?
Are you using the GUI system-config-authentication? Or are you manually adjusting smb.conf, krb5.conf, and then using net join ads?
no man am running script that include many thing required for linux to be joined to windows AD
Are you using system-config-authententication?

Your response does not include which guide you are following and what your issues are.

Searching for "redhat 6 ad integration" returns guides to complete the process.

Are you trying to setup/configure a kickstart setup that will auto join a system into the ad upon install?
