In the setup phase, we should just do what we do now - there is no need to distinguish any further than between a DNS service provided by the sipXecs system and some other DNS server. > Inside sipXconifg, we should have an entry point dedicated for DNS > setting for both Windows or Linux scenarios (Maybe move DNS advisor > there too) I should think that somewhere in the settings for the system, if we are using an external DNS, there should be a set of configuration for: boolean: DNS server is Windows and iff that is true, then the name and credentials for that server. _______________________________________________ sipx-dev mailing list [email protected] List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-dev Unsubscribe: http://list.sipfoundry.org/mailman/listinfo/sipx-dev sipXecs IP PBX -- http://www.sipfoundry.org/
