And for another viewpoint, having run both BIND and Windows DNS for years, I've migrated solely to Windows DNS. DNS really isn't a big performance hog, so it runs fine on the iMail server itself, though you'll want a secondary for redundancy. That's assuming you're not running iMail, IIS, SQL Server, Websphere and whatever else on the system as well. :) Jeff (And actually, that's the config of my iMail server...) --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude Virus] --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
