Win2k Migration Questions

We use a Bind infrastructure for DNS currently but I have a number of
questions/concerns related to a migration from NT to Win2k. I am
hoping for some advice from those who have been down this path before.
We currently have an NT domain name with an underscore in the name
(eg. NT_Net). We are now looking at how to deal with this underscore
issue with the migration to Win2k. I am also not comfortable with
Win2k/Bind interaction with respect to DDNS.
I was thinking of the following deployment strategy:
Let Win2k ADS resolve for NT_Net.corp.com and continue to use Bind for
corp.com. PCs got to ADS for DNS and unix machines go to a Bind DNS
server to resolve names/IPs.
One issue would be PC's resolving unix machine names and vice versa.
Would it be best to make ADS a secondary for corp.com and Bind a
secondary for NT_Net.corp.com?
Does this deployment sound reasonable? Any suggestions for someone
running a strictly Bind infrastructure tasked with deploying Win2k?
Cheers,
