ISC has been working with Tridge from the Samba team to make it easier to configure BIND 9 to use GSS-TKEY. GSS-TKEY is used to allow Windows clients to securely update DNS zones using dynamic DNS, primarily in an Active Directory environment.

These changes may be coming as early as BIND 9.8.0, which is scheduled to be released in late January, 2011. They were proposed and written by the Samba team in order to more easily integrate BIND 9 with Samba 4.
