This means that it’s now possible to upgrade WinBIND without needing to first stop the WinBIND Windows service. Thanks to the generosity of Caphyon I’m now using Advanced Installer Professional.Please contact me if you’d like to be involved in testing Live Stats in a beta capacity. I’ll be writing a page about this soon, but here’s a teaser screenshot. Cosmetic change: the WinBIND window is now slightly larger because of an major new feature coming in version 3: Live Stats.Cosmetic improvement: the Service Status now shows live information about what WinBIND is doing in the background (eg importing BIND logs, updating the Windows Firewall or running an Active Refresh).Cosmetic improvement: changed the Refresh button to show Working when generating a report so that it was clear that WinBIND was not stalled.New feature: you can now do a reverse DNS lookup for the top 10 clients in the Top 100 Clients and Bad Clients reports.New report: added a new Top 100 Clients report.If you are upgrading from a previous version you will be asked to use the Maintenance tool to upgrade to the new method

Improved the way that the SQL connection password is stored in the Windows Registry.Optimised LiveStats code to further minimise SQL database load.Version History WinBIND 2.8.0 (current) 25th April 2021
