Possible: I'm doing it. Convenient? Depends on what you consider "convenient" The machine in question only serves a few zones, and only changes its IP occesionally. When it does, I have a script which will change the config file for sshd, and another which changes most (but not all) settings for bind. Elapsed time (assuming I remember all the bits): 5 minutes, plus a re-boot and checking the numbers. Robert Huff
