Our clients have their own views but also need to include the slaved Win2K8 domain. When BIND performs its transfers it attempts to pull across the Win2K8 slave for every view! this ends up in the journal being created by one view and then another attempting to overwrite it and getting a serial number mismatch.

I know this may sound heretical but due to the complications encountered 
when using multiple views (in my case 16). I just decided to have all 
servers run as masters, and use special DNS admin software for the 
replication. Works perfect no hassles with VIPs and routing, etc. etc.

Cheers,
Gary
