Batch Files for NT

[webmaster]

Hello,

There is a great resource for BIND 8.2.2 on NT located at
http://bind8nt.meiway.com . On the site the author refers to a couple of
batch scripts that aid with a bug in the NT port of BIND. Here is what he
states:

============

DNS query results in many A records returned to BIND/NT for one hostname.
This is now a bug confirmed/duplicated by three or four us for the NT port
of BIND 8.2.2 p5. When BIND queries for the A record for a hostname and
receives dozens of A records, BIND8/NT will hang. BIND on my FreeBSD DNS
machines does not hang. BIND/NT can be restarted as an NT service without
rebooting the machine.

If you have this problem, look in your etc/named.run log file to see the
last hostname queried.

Temporary fix 1: I have two batch files to be run on the BIND/NT machine.
One batch file use the NT schedule service to run the other batch file every
5 minutes. The other batch file queries BIND and if no response is received,
it stops/starts BIND. Contact if you these batch files.

============

I have tried to contact him and thus far have not had any luck and was
wondering if anyone out there might have these batch files and could send
them to me. I seen to be experiencing the same problems here. I would
appreciate any help!

Thanks!

Eric
