Export DNS on Windows¶

To generate a bind-compatible export file from a Windows DNS server:

Browse to C:\Windows\System32\dns
Create a folder called export
Open a command prompt and browse to C:\Temp
Run the following commands:

dnscmd /enumzones > AllZones.txt
for /f %a in (AllZones.txt) do dnscmd /ZoneExport %a export\%a.txt

In the export folder you will now have a text file with an export for every zone (forward & reverse) in your DNS server.
