>>This is not a problem with 2K3 DNS. Depends on how you define "problem" ownership. 2K3 DNS implements EDNS0 (a fully RFC-compliant implementation, mind you). However, a number of the Network equipments were not ready for it. Many are still not compliant. So, your EDNS0-enabled DNS server is able to work fine when your equipment speaks the same language, but it barfs when your equipment doesn't. You have a decision to make. Live with it, or make your DNS speak the same language that everyone else understands by turning off EDNS0. Sincerely,

Windows 2000 DNS uses abnormal sized dns packets (too big), and the PIX's block them. There is a patch for the pix ISO, or there is a a patch from MS to change the size. This is not a problem with 2K3 DNS.
