Hi,

I think I have set in the DNS server to take both secure and non secure. So
I guess in the other domain where DHCP is not authorized, the DNS updates
would be non secure. Since the DNS server is allowed to take both secure and
non secure updates it might do it. I am not sure whether this would happen
or not, but theoritically it might be possible.

Any comments?

regards
Hursh
