    what kind os is on your current windows dns machine? If
    it's running w2k, you can consider to promote it to be a
    DC, the first or the second (use the w2k machine
    mentioned as the first one). If it's running NT, upgrade
    it. Then you can use the BIND machines to be the
    secondaries.
