The book doesn't say it WON'T work (there are actually a few examples) but that it (the DNS WMI provider only) is unreliable. This has been apparently fixed in .NET.. WMI in general is quite reliable, we are speaking of a particular provider only.

I have Robbies Managing Enterprise ADS, and it says that the WMI interface to DNS isn't reliable. I need to create a couple hundred reverse lookup zones on a standalone W2K box for our routers, and don't wanna do it manually. Any suggestions are appreciated.
