Turning off the Ldapip address record will break GPOs it is this record that
is used to resolve the SYSVOL DFS Share at \\dnsdomain\sysvol These records
should point to the IP address on all DCs for which File Sharing is enabled
on. The only time you should disable the Ldapip address record is when you
have multi homed DCs and only one interface has file sharing enabled. The
interface's IP that has file sharing enabled should then be manually
created. If you point this record to a webserver then the domain members
will look for the SYSVOL DFS share and group policies on the web server.

This is how Multi-master DNS works, each DNS server is its own master. It is
not a technical violation because each zone only has one SOA record. It is
just that each DNS server has a primary writable zone and will therefore
list itself as the Primary Master.
The RFC states that each zone can only have one SOA record, each zone only
has one SOA so it is not a violation.
