We're both small enough that we've just been handling additions and removals via e-mail and hand-editing. But I've been wondering if there are any tools (or bind configuration tricks) that would make it easier for a DNS server to keep its list of secondaries in sync with a 'foreign' server's primaries list? Ideally, it would handle the possibility of more than a simple 1:1 relationship. (I.e. ISP A provides secondaries for B and C, B provides secondaries for A and D, C provides secondaries only for A, etc.) Thanks, -Pat To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
