RSAT missing DNS Server Tools?
[UPDATE] The final 1803 release of RSAT is now on the public RSAT download page. Look for the WS_1803 package there, thanks!

Here's the official KB workaround published by the DNS team:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4055558/rsat-missing-dns-server-tool-in-windows-10-version-1709 (thanks Christoff MOrlOck for posting this previously)
The RSAT download page now also has this info under Additional Information:
Issue: DNS Tools missing
Impact: WS_1709 RSAT package users
Resolution: Use the WS2016 RSAT package or apply this workaroundThe DNS team has also fixed the root cause for RS4 and so the workaround will not be required for the upcoming RS4 RSAT package update.
No ifs, ands or buts. I'm tired of downloading RSAT for Windows 10. After the 1709 update this week it broke again.
Installed WS_1709 after the update, no DNS, did a system restore to go back to WS_2016 but it will not install.
Just going to RDP to the DCs from now on.
Thanks again Microsoft for updating the updates and breaking other things along the way too.
