Not sure if they are BSD-based, but both dyndns.org and zoneedit.com offser secondary service for practically nothing. I'm %99 sure that dyndns.org is FBSD based.

Re: Secondary DNS or BSD Server space
sounds like we should come up with a replicable secondary zones system based on bind and setup a few locations for redundency we could create a global redundent BSDDNSSEC.com if we pitched in and created something to replicate data between a few hosts value added BSD services, ill have a minimal system functional by morning, i was looking at a few options for doing this. suggestions ?

Secondary DNS or BSD Server space
