I think the problem is the you are adding to an invalid zone here.  I am 
guessing siomething is silently failing.

You are stating that your domain is
mark.cinense.org <http://mark.cinense.org>

but I think you want it do be test.mark.cinense.org 
<http://mark.cinense.org>


And then your server ipaserver.test.mark.cinense.org 
<http://ipaserver.test.mark.cinense.org>   makes sense.


The zone is the zone you are going to control by default, not the zone 
you are joining....if that makes sense
