> We have now started up a new bind 8 on W2K on which we have already started

> Our concern is that the old server is very unstable and obviously it will

	Yes.

> My idea is to convert the old bind 4 zonefiles to bind 8, move them to the

	Should.  Just check the eventviewer for errors detected by named.
