Has anyone come up with a method to convert the ampr.org listings from
ftp.ucsd.edu to a proper format to use with bind (which appears to me
to be more difficult to set up than sendmail?) I'm looking for a
solution which could be used on a system not connected full-time to the
Internet. I just bought the O'Reilly bind book, but haven't
figured this one out yet. I assume I need to create a db.44 file.
