Is it possible to change from the internal name server to BIND once you've provisioned a domain? I set mine up with the internal since it seemed easier, but then discovered the only way for my DHCP clients to update their names in DNS is via BIND, so I'd rather use that instead. Thanks in advance for any advice!

I think we would need some more code to correctly accept TKEY requests in the same way the internal DNS server accepts unauthenticated requests (write them 'as system'). If you are able to help with the bind9 DLZ side of things, then certainly, this might be practical.
