Hi Robin,
Ok, now I understand. you are using the ampr_extractor on a file produced by
BIND 8 directly, not what my script expects as stated:
---- snip ----
# This script is intended to extract sub-domain information from the file
# ampr.org, stored from the DNS server at ftp.ucsd.edu. (This file holds all
# the DNS information for the "ampr.org" domain.)
---- snip ----
As you say, a DNS server will often modify the domain information with
$ORIGIN options.
I could certainly change this behaviour without much effort, but the script
wasn't expecting the format you are feeding it.
However if you do a dump of the cache to disk, you probably won't have just
ampr.org information, so I guess I would need to filter out other domain
information?
Correct?
Simon
