This is the easiest way to get this done. I have personally configured this in a Tier 1 Service Provider mobility environment, so I can tell you that performance is QUITE high, when tuned appropriately with a udp profile.

This also allows you to add a full proxy caching dns firewall in front of your AD DNS.

Sorry for the delay. I was certain I posted this here on the same day I made the video to answer the question.

Checking back to make sure you're good on this. Have you tried or tested this solution yet? It's far easier than secondarying and we run this architecture for BIND, Infoblox, AD.. you name it.
