Sure, BIND 9 is available for Windows 2000 (binary) and can be
compiled for 2003.

That sounds like a LOT of overhead for just dns, there has to be a
windows version of bind or something.

Why not just run a VMware DNS appliance on the Windows 2003 server?

Hey webdude,
I understand your confusion! It took me awhile to figure it out
myself!
Here goes:
- The current release of Server 2003 Web Edition is with
Service Pack 2. This version does not have DNS and DHCP.
- The older releases (pre-service pack 1) and with
service pack 1 did have DNS & DHCP.
So, if you but the latest release, you won’t get DNS & DHCP. But,
if you can find an older version (pre-service pack 2 release)
then you will get DNS & DHCP.
If you do get your hands on a pre-service pack 2 release, you can
still download and apply service pack 2 to your server.

Windows Server 2003 web edition does not have DNS, DHCP, or
Active directory integrated with the web edition:
https://msdn.one.microsoft.com/home.aspx?
ApplicationID=4E9B12B3-3B2C-4697-9873-A8D8E5B96364&CultureCode=en-
us&BenefitDetailGuid=709B8F04-
B3EF-4C09-93BA-9E3D645CCDAD&AccessGuid=E705FFBC-97B8-4277-
A410-6DBB6609A36F&SourceSystemCode=XEN&SubscriptionStatus=Active
Furthermore, the highest version you can go up to id SP2. There
is no R2 for Server 2003 web edition. Microsoft has dropped the
web edition, and is no longer available to purchase. There are
still some copies around that stores and online sellers have in
stock, but the SKU has been discontinued from the major
distributors and isn’t available from Microsoft to purchase.
The editions are going to be:
- Small business Server (no good for web)
- Standard
- Enterprise
- Datacentre
So, you can use Web edition and install third party DNS, and use
your router for DHCP. But if you need Windows DNS advanced
features (delegation, forwarding, recursive lookup) and advanced
DHCP (relay agent, multiple subnets, bootp) then you need
standard edition server.

Subject: Witango-Talk: Off Topic Windows 2003 Web Edition
Hello,
Is anyone using this platform? I am trying to get some info on it
and like usual, I am totally confused by any information from
Microsoft.. Does it come with the DNS Server? I am looking to set
up a secondary DNS server with a new machine. Looks like the Web
Edition is the ticket. Do not need domain or domain controller...
just a way to host multiple sites on multiple IPs.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
