Thanks for the reply Pat.
I know how to enable XML DNS resoltuion, what has me stumped is how do I
keep my non direct access clients happy when I enable XML DNS resolution.
My netscaler only looks to my external BIND server for DNS resolution and
it knows nothing of my internal DNS structure. I trying to figure out how
to be able to delegate my internal DNS zone (e.g.
internal.myorganization.com) to be resolved by my netscaler on the internal
DNS servers. Unfortunately I cannot just add the internal DNS servers to
the mix because we maintain an internal version of our external top level
domain.
