All you have to do is delegate the four "_" zones to a MS W2k box.
But also have those zones slaved on your BIND servers. I have 12
sets of "_" zones on my W2k DNS box. Almost all of my other zones are
on BIND Servers.
For more details check the list archives, where there have been many
W2k-related postings in the past few years.
