You may find named-compilezone useful to get your zone files in a consistent format before performing your mass update.

I client of mine has thousands of DNS zones that will need a ttl chance and a serial bump. I want to set a relevant ttl to 300 for a few days.

After that, an IP address change will be made, and I would like to change the TTL back to something sane. The general format of the zone looks something like below.

Any suggestions on the best way to go trough these? Some will have variations on them, like some have mx records, most do not:

$TTL 1D
@       IN      SOA     ns2.example.com.       dns.example.com. (
2009041300 ; serial, todays date + todays serial #
               8H              ; refresh
               2H              ; retry
               4W              ; expire
               1H )            ; minimum
@       IN      NS      ns2.example.com.       ;Primary Nameserver
@       IN      NS      ns1.example.com.     ;Secondary Nameserver

; http website base
@        IN      A       000.122.226.210
www      IN      A       000.122.226.210

Would the "refresh" be the best value to target in this case?
