How to run bind and dhcpd as slave on windows 2008 ad domain.
Is it possible?
Eero,
Yeah, bit offtopic. Would like to see this answered on a M$ ml (do they even have them?). AFAIK Bind runs on Windows (when I tried it installed and ran fine apparently) and should be able to do transfers. No idea how the Windows machine being an AD might change this (don't ADs run DNS by default?). No experience with isc dhcpd on Windows.
Bind (running on anything) should be able to slave a zone to a windows dns server or AD just following standards. I don't think there is an equivalent for dhcp failover but you could probably run it on two Centos servers with the clients registering with the AD server's DNS.
Well, windows usually does not follow standards without own microsoft tricks.
If bind works with windows ad, it might require very special configuration. (because ad is using RR and similar for it's own purpose) also dhcp requires authorization from ad (http://blog.studiographic.nl/?p=219)
