Install BIND Utilities on Windows

This was tested on Windows 7 and is essentially a copy from another website.

• Download the latest BIND windows binaries.
  

https://www.isc.org/downloads/file/bind-9-10-3-p4/?version=win-32-bit
or
https://www.isc.org/downloads/file/bind-9-10-3-p4/?version=win-64-bit

• Unzip and run BINDInstall.exe
• Check the box marked "Install Tools Only"
• After installation is finished open system properties.

Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\System

• Advanced System Settings
• Environmental Variables
• Highlight PATH and click "Edit..."
• This is a semicolon separated list, so if something already exists go to the end of the line and add

;C:\Program Files\ISC BIND 9\bin

If the line is empty, remove the semicolon before the "C:\..."

• Hit all the OKs until all the windows are gone.
• Open a terminal and type

C:\Users\michael.mast>dig google.com

This will hopefully get you through until your Linux workstation is built.
