You might try another DNS server software. I use SimpleDNS Plus (http://www.jhsoft.com/), and run all my customer domains (350), 250K+ messages per day with Declude and Imail using it, and 2000 dial customers, with no issues. I have never heard MS DNS to be stable under high load conditions. It used to do strange things with more than 20 domains under very low load back in NT4, and I heard it had a memory leak under 2k with an earlier service pack.

Correct. >Is there a newer version of MS DNS or are you suggesting a different >product. I don't know -- I've never actually used MS DNS. But it sounds like there is a serious problem with MS DNS that a number of our customers have been seeing lately, where it slows down tremendously, that requires either a clearing of the cache or reboot to fix. -Scott --- Declude JunkMail: The advanced anti-spam solution for IMail mailservers.
