Can you guys help me out.... I've been revising for 70-219
using the Exam Cram 2 book from Que. The book states that
Bind 8.1.2 is required for Srv and dynamic update support.

A friend let me borrow his cbtnugget 70-219 video.. which
tells me that the version of bind to support srv and
dynamic updates is 8.2.1

Who was right... I did a google search for bind srv
dynamic update the first page to come back is

www.microsoft.com/technet/
community/columns/profwin/pw1200.mspx

Which states 8.2.1

A KB article on MS web site states 8.1.2

Anyone have a clue who is right.... I'm about 90% sure is
gonna be 8.1.2... Id like to be 100% before I sit the exam!

Cheers,

Ant

From the Exam Cram 70-219 Windows 2000 Directory Services Design:


"BIND 8.2.2 is the first reliable version of BIND to perform dynamic updates
successfully.

Note: You may find references to BIND 8.2.1 in older documentation. BIND
8.2.1 however, crashes when updated by a Windows 2000 computer and is
therefore not very well suited to a Windows 2000 implementation."


Apparently the Exam Cram 2 series books aren't any better then the original
Exam Cram series.

Hello,

BIND 8.1.2 (BIND 8.1.1 also but it's bugged) support SRV and dynamic updates
but not IXFR (Only AXFR is supported).

BIND 8.2.1 support also IXFR zone tranfer.

Bye

The deal is that the support was added in 8.1.1, but it didn't really work.
However, the idea of asking about BIND versions is pretty bogus now because
so many security issues have been discovered. The real story about BIND and
its versions is at http://www.isc.org. Microsoft has a Whitepaper on
integrating BIND and Windows DNS. That gives a better view of how it is
really done. For the test, I wouldn't be answering 8.1.1, if 8.1.2 was also
an option. If you see a question like that on the exam (referencing those
versions) you should make a comment that it is time to revise it.

Good luck!
