Here is another option to create a buttload of DNS zones. This will work with Primary Secondary, not AD integrated. Change your DNS server option: Load DNS data on startup from Active Directory and Registry to from file. This will create a boot file. Edit the boot file with the zone and the

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. -Original Message- From: Parker, Edward
