This feature is really for people who _don't_ have staff who enforce rules, but also don't have staff who know how to make the changes. If you can find a text output form that's more useful than the heavily commented BIND zone file format now output by the DNS Advisor, then please provide a pointer. I guess I was seeing another use for it, instances where there are discrepancy in how the telecom side was expecting it to be implemented, and the way the IT staff was implementing it. I've had cases where these discrepancies keep things from working without a lot of pinpointing what should be simple issues. If I understood correctly, it appears someone was attempting to write a program that interfaced to a Windoze program to correctly write configurations to Windoze DNS. Sounds very cool, but I'm thinking that in some of these cases access won't be granted. My apologies if I've confused things. _______________________________________________ sipx-dev mailing list [email protected] List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-dev Unsubscribe: http://list.sipfoundry.org/mailman/listinfo/sipx-dev sipXecs IP PBX -- http://www.sipfoundry.org/
