	Like this, you question was quite funny. Anyway ;-)
	Topic is about mobile clients moving from one network to
another and using a variety of interface. Because of this mobility,
the DNS configuration they need to use change over time. Win32 and
OS-X seems to use the proper configuration at the proper time on most
cases. Bind doesn't even attempt to handle that.
	Any extra clarification needed ?
