The DNS server does not answer any queries about 2 seconds after starting. The last action the process monitor sees is the successful IRP_MJ_CLEANUP operation for the krb5.ini file (after successful open and read.)  I do see context swithes climb slowly for the process, but nothing else (no CPU or IO). The stack:

Which DNS implementation are you trying to run?

This should probably be

          default_keytab_name = FILE:C:\Files\dev\krb5.keytab

but I would have to check for details.
