Bind 822p5, W2k AD in Delegated zone problem...

I am still confused.  If you want the DNS zone 

     hosting.netsetgo.net

to be AD-integrated, then define that zone on the W2k DNS box as an
AD-integrated zone.  You can have your BIND server be a slave for that
zone. 

If your BIND server is a master, then you can have any or all
of the W2k Domain Controllers be slaves for the zone, assuming that
the DCs are running the DNS application.  In this case, each of the
DC slaves will be retrieving its zone from the BIND master independently
from the other DC slaves.

If, on the other hand, you want the W2k machines in the domain

     hosting.netsetgo.net

to be part of an AD, then you need to configure the Domain Controller(s)
and the machines to be part of AD.  The DNS configuration for the zone
is independent of whether you have AD activated (except for the case
where you have the master on a W2k DNS box and you want the zone to be
AD-integrated, in which case you must have activated AD).
