Yeah... I agree with these guys. DNS is something you want to be 100%
reliable.
For what it's worth, I've been very happy with Zoneedit.com as an external
dns provider. Their rates are reasonable and I haven't experienced any
downtime with them in several years.

Not only is it advisable to segregate the services. In the case of DNS it is
advisable to run DNS servers (yes multiple servers) dispersed across
multiple remote networks (i.e. multiple internet locations) for reliability.
Your client only needs win2k/IIS/CF running on their web server. Let the
registrar handle the DNS zonefiles. If you want further control over your
client's DNS, use a registrar which provides DNS zone management utilities
(most provide this as standard nowadays).
