Since you asked for any help, here goes: You don't have to manually duplicate DNS records, just set up your slave servers' named.conf file appropriately (as slaves for some domains), and it'll get the records from the master server (assuming the master server isn't set to prohibit that - it usually isn't). I, too, would like to try using rndc for reconfiguration issues. It seems like it ought to be able to do such things (e.g. add a new host to a zone record, without having to restart the server manually, or fire up some convoluted configuration GUI). But I can't see a way to do so. The rndc man file suggests the tool is far from ready. -- Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I read messages from the public lists.
