Greetings all

I've recently updated to bind-8 for the ampr.org DNS I run on the
local hub, gb7ipd. This is running live off the net and works great
as a straight DNS however two problems arise...

1. I'd like to extract the UK parts of the ampr.org domain using
ampr_extractor from Simon Mudd (or similar) but the cache file
that bind-8 produces is a real mix!! None of the CNAMEs or MX
records get sorted out but the basic forward IN records seem
to extract OK. Is there a utility that will order the cache file
into something like the ampr.tgz file on ucsd or is there an updated
version of ampr_extractor that will cope with these problems.

2. I'm collecting ampr.org as a slave in bind-8 but would like to 
serve it onto another hub who doesn't have net access as readily
available as me. Trouble is it keeps clearing down. The 'other end'
is rtt 2.1 secs at 130 bytes/sec away on a 2k4 radio link. Is this
too slow or is there something odd going on with serial numbers
or summat twixt my bind-8 and his bind-4. I can't determine which
end is sending the RST as it seems to vary!!

Cheers
