We've run Windows DNS (on our mail server as well) for several years with no
problems.  I haven't ever seen a performance comparison of Windows DNS vs.
BIND, though.

Scott, what's your rationale behind recommending BIND instead?

Because I have heard many, many reports of problems with Windows DNS. There are often mysterious problems that go away by rebooting a Windows DNS server. If it is working fine for you, then I wouldn't recommend switching -- it may well be that the version you are running along with the way you have it set up (and your volume) doesn't have any problems.


Part of the problem may be that Windows DNS is part of the OS (which only gets a new release every couple of years), whereas BIND is a "standard" product in that it is continually upgraded.
