Carey and Joe have given you the answer you sought. But I am curious as to
why a company would choose to use BIND instead of the native windows.
Note I said " instead of" not "with". For convenience, I would heavily
reccomend using your new DCS as DNS servers and using the linux boxes as
secondaries or as a split DNS system used to handle external queries.
I don't buy into the whole "BIND is more secure than MS DNS". I have seen no
evidence of this. If any one has a credible reason that could actually
happen I would be more than happy to switch my view.
