In 1996, Cyberspace HQ's Michael Kovnick took on the task of setting up a company DNS server.  After finding the Windows NT port of BIND, and several commercialware products that all seemed to require a degree in rocket science to understand, he consulted with other administrators to find the secret to understanding DNS.  He quickly found that those who knew considered it a secret to guard.  It seemed that once you understood, you were admitted into the secret circle of those who 'get' DNS.

After weeks of reading and questioning everyone he knew, he finally decided that this was a prime example of software that just needed to be simplified.  That is when the DeEnesse project was born:  Write an application that will simplify the administration of a DNS server.

Packed into DNS users will find:

• A logical GUI interface that steps the user through each task.
• Useful utilities like a GUI NS Lookup, WhoIs,  Ping and Trace Route.
• Wizards for Domain Setup.
• The most complete documentation you will find on managing a DNS server.
• An Internic Domain Registration utility.
• and of course, the Windows NT/95 port of BIND.

Cyberspace HQ has taken every effort to not only make DNS something one can easily understand, but to make the time spent administering a server as short and sweet as possible.  DeEnesse allows for tons of default setting, it imports other DNS Server settings, manages multiple servers over a local network, and even auto-creates secondary servers.
