Hello,
Just something to consider:
I run 4 servers with MS-DNS on it, and never use the GUI. I just edit the
zones and the boot file, that's enough for me.
FYI, the 4 DNS servers are a failover construction for my primary and
secondary DNS servers that handle over 60 million queries a day. Among other
things, they are rootservers for the ORSC namespace (public resolvers) and
active nameservers for the relays.osirusoft.com zone.
I have thought about using BIND for NT, but it is just not possible because
BIND has a bug that prevents me from slaving a root zone '.' (really
slaving, thus not using hints), and I really need to. I have submitted the
bug and got a response like: 'uhhh, sorry about that. use hints'.
I have never had any problems with MS-DNS whatsoever, and the GUI is not
necessary at all.
I hope this helps :p
