The tools will NOT run on Win9x, only WinNT and Win2000. The latter tools are for use with DNSSEC. All tools are installed in the dns/bin directory. +IMPORTANT NOTE ON USING THE TOOLS: +If you wish to use nsupdate on a win32 platform to do dynamic updates +to a zone you MUST create a resolv.conf in the System32\Drivers\etc +directory containing a list of nameserver addresses to use to find +the nameserver authorative for the zone. The format of this file is: + +nameserver 1.2.3.4 +nameserver 5.6.7.8 + +Replace the IP addresses with your real addresses. 127.0.0.1 is a valid +address if you are running a nameserver on the localhost. + +In addition, if you use dig, host or nslookup, you will need this +file on the system where you are running these tools unless you have +BIND running on that system. + +This will be fixed in a future release. + Problems Please report all problems to bind9-bugs@isc.org and not to me.
