	DNS BIND zone clause
		A slave zone is a replica of the master zone and obtains its zone data by zone transfer operations.
		A stub zone is similar to a slave zone except that it replicates only the NS records of a master zone instead of the entire zone.
		Stub zones are not a standard part of the DNS they are a feature specific to the BIND implementation and should not be used unless there is a specific requirement.

	DNS zone transfer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The parties involved in a zone transfer are a client (the "slave" requesting the data from a portion of the database to be transferred to it) and a server (the "master" supplying those data from its database).
		The portion of the database that is replicated is a "zone".
		Clients schedule zone transfers initially, when their databases are empty, at thereafter at regular intervals, in a pattern controlled by the values in the "refresh", "retry", and "expire" fields in the SOA resource record of the zone apex.

	Some practical advice on DNS zone file construction
		In theory the DNS is not Internet specific and is not even IP or IPv6 specific, but in practice (with very few exceptions) it is. There can be multiple naming DNS zones (each with a different set of root server) and there can be non-IP RRs, but it is very rare.
		A zone is a subset of the DNS that is served by the same DNS server, and may include none, some or all of the subdomains of a domain (that is it includes all subdomains of the root domain of the zone that are defined and are not delegated).
		A DNS server is authoritative if it resolves queries from a copy of the zone (not necessarily of the zone file), not by querying other servers.

	DNS-Master zone file editor :: Help
		DNS servers are essential for the operation of a domain (zone), processing requests for the domain (zone) on the Internet.
		To finish editing and save all changes you have made in a zone file on the DNS server, you have to close the editing session according to the recommendations given in the paragraph 4 of this manual.
		The number of NS records in a zone file should equal the number of DNS servers that serve the domain and should include all DNS servers that are specified in the domain.

	DNS (Domain Name Services, named, ndc)
		Zone "." (Named.ca) is a caching file pointing to the world's top level DNS servers.Zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" is reverse DNS for the loopback interface lo.
		Zone "mydomain.cxm" is forward DNS for the server's domain, and is different from the per-domain files.
		In /etc/named.conf, make sure each zone's domain is spelled right, no domains end with a period (the period goes in the zone files, not the init file), make sure the directory entry in the options section is correct, and make sure all zone filenames are spelled correctly.

	DNS Protocol Related Documents
		DNS Security (DNSSEC) technology is composed of extensions to the Domain Name System (DNS) protocol that provide data integrity and authentication to security aware resolvers and applications through the use of cryptographic digital signatures.
		The delegation signer (DS) resource record is inserted at a zone cut (i.e., a delegation point) to indicate that the delegated zone is digitally signed and that the delegated zone recognizes the indicated key as a valid zone key for the delegated zone.
		The original function and purpose of the DNS is reviewed, and contrasted with some of the functions into which it is being forced today and some of the newer demands being placed upon it or suggested for it.

	Linux DNS Server - How To Set Up Static or Dynamic DNS for Your Internet Servers
		DNS records (aka zone records) for a domain are stored in the domain's zone file on the authoritative DNS servers.
		Given that a DNS server can host the zone files for many different domains, each having two zone files, it needs a way to tell which zone files are for which domains.
		Simple DNS servers and LAN servers which also provide simple DNS services (resolving Internet host/domain names) need to be connected to the Internet but being behind a firewall should not present a problem as long as you have UDP port 53 is open on the firewall.

	DNS tools
		DNS is generally an important part of their functionality, but most have strong features in IP address management and other areas also.
		The DNS server component is based on BIND 8 running on Windows or Unix.
		Every site running a significant DNS installation will tend to accumulate tools like these; many sites write their own but it is worth looking at what others have produced before reinventing the wheel.

	mkrdns: An automatic reverse DNS zone generator (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		It will then automatically generate the reverse zone entries (IN PTR) for the networks for which you are the primary/master.
		The added support for views also allows mkrdns to find zone "file" statements anywhere in the zone statement (see the FAQ on this page.) Added a "ignoreslaves" directive to ignore forward zone slaves in the configuration.
		The regexp that matches zone statements was made simpler and was also modified to handle this case.

	Novell Documentation: DNS/DHCP - Zone Management
		The DNS Zone object is an eDirectory container object that comprises Resource Record Set (RRSet) objects and resource records.
		Zone Master IP Address: To change a Primary zone to a Secondary zone, click the Secondary zone box and provide the IP address of the Primary DNS Server in the Zone Master IP Address field.
		Authoritative DNS Servers: To delete a DNS server assignment to a zone, select the server to be removed from the field, then click Remove.

	DNS Stub Zones in Windows Server 2003
		Zones contain resource records that specify the name of the DNS server authoritative for the zone (SOA record), the names and IP addresses of all name servers in the zone (NS records), the names and IP addresses of other hosts (A records), aliases for hosts (CNAME records), and so on.
		This means replicating zone information from master to stub zone adds almost nil DNS traffic to your network as the records for name servers rarely change unless you decommission an old name server or deploy a new one.
		Also, while most DNS servers can be configured to prevent zone transfers to secondary zones from occurring, stub zones request only SOA, NS, and A records for name servers, all of which are provided without restriction by any name server since these records are essential for name resolution to function properly.

		cs.colorado.edu, colorado.edu, and edu are all seperate zones
		The edu zone delegates authority for the colorado.edu zone to admins for the University of Colorado
		Zone transfers (when a secondary server gets an entire set of zone data from a primary server) sometimes utilize a different port (1053 seems to be common) to allow for more specific firewall rules.

	DoNutS - analyze DNS zone files for errors and warnings (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		DoNutS is a DNS Lint application that examines DNS zone files looking for particular problems.
		Generally, these rules are ones that concentrate on pulling remote DNS data to test; for example, parent/child zone relationships.
		As an example, if you have a DS record which authenticates the key used in a child zone the live feature will let a rule run which checks to see if the child is actually publishing the DNSKEY that corresponds to the test zone's DS record.

		This script will print the A records in a zone file, add a new A record for the name ``new'' and then return the zone file.

	Free DNS, DNS, DDNS, Reliable DNS, Free Redirection, Cheap DNS - DNS MADE EASY
		Reverse DNS (rDNS) is quite simply the method of resolving an IP address into a domain name, just as the domain name system (DNS) resolves domain names into associated IP addresses.
		A reverse DNS zone is slightly different than a normal domain name.
		The zone (domain) "1.168.192.in-addr.arpa" would actually be the reverse DNS for the 192.168.1 class C. So this would handle the reverse DNS for IPs 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.256.

		mkrdns does this by reading through all of the primary/secondary (master/slave) zones in your configuration file (either named.boot or named.conf).
		mkrdns also acts as a limited lint-like program, issuing warnings and errors if there are problems with your configuration or zone files.
		There were two interim releases: 2.0dev1 and 2.0dev2 that weren't announced and were just available from this web page.

		The technique I use in editing zone files or otherwise in perl is by having a flat-file database of records to edit, and after every change I would generate a zone file based upon that file's contents.
