Hello,

Is there a small freeware DNS Server that I can run on a Windows 2000/XP or even Win9x Workstations in the background?

Thanks!

I will do a search for the application, but by any chance do you know the URL for the application or may still have it on a drive somewhere?

Thanks!

I could not find anything on this application.
I want to run several backup DNS servers on Windows Workstations, these workstations will most likely be Windows 2000/XP systems. (If Win9x are supported that is good too).

So, these workstation DNS servers will not be the primary DNS, thus restricting the user from editting the DNS settings.

powerdns should work on windows. we use it for some pretty complex stuff in linux-land and it works very well.
