Thanks for the tip. I just installed that package on my workstation, and
it seems to work very well. However, my NT application log receives the
following error messages on startup (serial numbers added):

1.
ctl_server: socket: Unknown error 

2.
unix control "%DESTRUN%/ndc" socket failed: Unknown error 

3.
directory C:\\WINNT\\system32\\dns is world-writable 

4.
directory . is world-writable 

Anything I can do to make those errors go away? What do errors 1 and 2
mean?

The working directory is not world-writable; only the Administrators group
and SYSTEM have access (Full Control).

My named.conf is below.
