I'm not sure but in many cases, DNS can be a political thing when it comes
to the "DNS" admins on the network. AD works ALOT easier with using MS DNS.
It needs no fancy config files or settings, it just works. If you can
delegate the zone from them, and forward back to the BIND servers for the
parent and all other zones, that seems to be your best bet. QIP is ok for
some solution, but I've heard quite a few nasty stories about getting it
config'ed to work seamlessly with AD.
A friend of mine works for a major uiversity in my area. They use BIND. FOr
their departments that use AD, they asked to have the system32\config folder
accessible to them so they can take the netlogon.dns file to use to populate
the required zones manually since they do not want 35,000 transient machines
registering into DNS. For those AD users, they need to get to resources on
the university's network, and they wanted the AD DNS domain name to be a
child of the network, but they don't allow anyone forwarding to it otherwise
imagine all the students abusing the DNS infrastructure (among other things
they attempt to abuse within the network). Their solution worked out fine,
but it requires a bit of manual work, but not that bad.
