Default DNS WMI Provider does not scale


Can anyone recommend a software tool for programmatic management of DNS?
The WMI provider did not scale well at all when we added two redundant DNS
servers for hosting domain names in active directory.

Default Re: DNS WMI Provider does not scale

Other then WMI, not many options. If your using AD you can use ADSI. If
using std primaries, you could manange the zone files yourself in code and
just reload them as needed. I don't think the number dns servers, however,
impacts WMI performance. It's slow on one, it's slow on two. When you make
a change, your still going after one server.
