Yay! Why not call the feature "metazones" since that's the term we are familiar with? I recently hacked together a crappy version, which is deliberately dumb and BIND-specific. http://dotat.at/prog/nsnotifyd/ I didn't implement Vixie-format metazones mainly out of laziness. My configuration is based on named ACLs and server lists (etc.) which helps to decouple the zone configurations from the server configurations - addresses, TSIG keys, etc. I incorrectly thought that Vixie's format was too address-based, but in fact I could have just left out the *.servers sub-tree and let the metazone refer to implicit out-of-zone data. I would have had to add an allow-query subtree too. Tony. -- f.anthony.n.finch <[email protected]> http://dotat.at/ Thames, Dover, Wight, Portland, Plymouth: Northeast 4 or 5.
