sure, if all the domains have identical zone data, then you can have
exactly one zone file for all 300 domains. create the db.zonecommon file
and then in named.conf:
zone "domain.com" { type master; file "db.zonecommon" ; };
zone "again.com" { type master; file "db.zonecommon" ; };
zone "encore.com" { type master; file "db.zonecommon" ; };
zone "heretoo.com" { type master; file "db.zonecommon" ; };
The "shared zone file" is an extremely powerful technique to support
virtual www/ftp/mail servers.
And if you can't fit all zones into one common zone file, make 3 or 4
shared variants, which is still tons simpler than 300, or 30,000 separate
zone files.
