If you're using Active Directory, there's a known bug that causes the
serial number on the W2K master server to roll back under certain
circumstances.  When this happens, the BIND slave will stop pulling zone
transfers.

Other than this, they seem to be compatible.  Many of our customers are
using W2K as their DNS servers, and we're using BIND 8.2.3 on our slaves.
