There is a big difference between being RFC compliant and being the right tool for the task at hand. Off the top of my head: MS-DNS does not use proper balancing when following NS records. I have had a number of interoperability problems with MS-DNS -- most of them were solved with hotfixes, but it was still aggravating. MS-DNS is not as configurable as BIND (for things like split DNS, access control, etc.). Logging control is not as good, either. I believe BIND is faster, too, but I'm not sure on that one. -- Ben Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | The opinions expressed in this message are those of the author and do not | | necessarily represent the views or policy of any other person, entity or | | organization.
