<# Welcome to PowerDNS V1.0! This Script is prepared by Subhro Majumder. Modified by Lance Lingerfelt - LDLNET LLC. #>
<# The script has been prepared and tested in Powershell 4.0. So when you run this script, please make sure that the Powershell version is 4.0 or above. #>
<# Using this script , you can Look-Up, Create and Delete A,PTR and CNAME Records. You can also Look-Up, Create, and Remove DNS Zones.#>
<# This script is suitable for single record entry as well as bulk entry. For every operation there are two options, Single and Bulk.
For Bulk entry you need to create an input file in CSV format. Sample input files has been provided along with this script. #>
<# While Deleting records, you will get a confirmation box for each record, to ensure that you are going to delete the correct record. #>
