If you have a working system under UNIX, you don't need to justify not
migrating to Win 2K, since there is no reason to migrate; instead, you'd
need reasons justifying a migration to Win 2K.

This being so, why are you considering a migration in the first place?

Unless you need server functionality that is _specific_ to Windows 2000 AND
you cannot keep both the UNIX system and the Windows 2000 system, why
migrate your DNS at all?  No need to fix something that isn't broken!
