Domain Name Server (DNS) Configuration Specification - a data object for configuring the RFC 1034 client side DNS settings.

TBD: remove this section, only for discussing what goes into this object. Place properties here that are specific to the RFC/common to all systems. Properties that are platform specific should go into a separate config spec. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc778792.aspx http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft\_DNS
