Joshua, I remember now... The utility was called DnsCmd and allows you to do pretty much anything with Windows DNS from the command line. Here's an example of how to add an NS record:
DnsCmd DNS1 /RecordAdd #domain# @ NS #NS1# .. where #domain# and #NS1# are variables. All I do is write a .BAT file containing all of my DNS commands (see above) and then use CFEXECUTE to run the .BAT file. I've created entire zones complete with mail, www, etc, etc records and never had any problems with it. So take a search for "DnsCmd.exe" on the Microsoft website. -Novak ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joshua Miller" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, November 01, 2002 10:50 AM Subject: RE: Using CF to interface IIS and Microsoft DNS > Thanks, it's just nice to know it's possible ;) I'll start looking at > the IIS Admin scripts and see if I can't pull some functionality from > there. > > Joshua Miller > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Ben Koshy [mailto:benlist@;w3media.net] > Sent: Friday, November 01, 2002 12:16 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: Using CF to interface IIS and Microsoft DNS > > > We were able to leverage some COM components of IIS & MS-DNS to do > this...
