out of the zone before loading it.

Any ideas, either under djbdns or Bind 9?

The story at http://daily.daemonnews.org/view_story.php3?story_id=4068

notes that there is a patch for dnscache at:
http://tinydns.org/djbdns-1.05-ignoreip.patch

someone also posted a likely update for bind 9 to slashdot:

(also available in a uuencoded version at:

)

I have no idea of how well either of these work.  Use your
own discretion at applying them.
