Hi i need to make a perl script that will make DNS 'A' records on the fly, like i pass is the nameand it will make and A record according to the name, ie: i pass it "dumbsub" from and html file and it creates "dumbsub" A record in a specified zone, like cool.com, and points it to a specified ip address,
and its gonna run on a linux box, but i have only programmed on a IIS machine, so i guess my first question is: How is a Linux DNS 'A' record formatted and could i just write a script that writes a file with all the same format except with all the passed info??, ie: name, ip, zone to be created in. if it works this way, could someone send me a copy of a DNS 'A' record.so i can see what they look like thanx! nate
