Search Again: Moving to windows From: Jim Cobb Date: Wednesday, August 18, 2004 Time: 6:08:29 am Management has decided that we are moving 100% to windows. Currently we are 2/3rds Macs with windows machines under NT domains/WINS and we are using using OS X dns servers with QuickDNS 4.5.1. My questions are: -Should we use 2003 DNS or stick with Unix DNS? -If we user 2003 DNS what is it's relationship with QuickDNS/Bind version 8/9? -While there are some instructions in the manual for changing Bind to dynamic DNS (which we may have to do for the transition), the utilities mentioned in the docs either don't seem to work or don't exist on the servers (we are using 10.2.8). -What are you guys using out there? My Microsoft people predict total and abject failure unless we use the entire server2003 suite, including DHCP etc. end to end unadulterated by Unix or "foreign programs" (which I interpret as non-microsoft). Thanks for any help with this- Jim
