Is there a nice way to tell if any zone is frozen (or a
specific zone)? I'm hoping to implement a nagios check, since
I have several times gotten distracted while making an update,

later on.
I would suggest that if you're making much use of rndc freeze, YDIW.
Consider using nsupdate(8) to make your changes.
True, but I just setup two new networks where the tenants wanted exactly
this capability...so use cases exist.
So put a wrapper around "rndc", tell them the zone files are in a
different directory than they really are, and invoke "nsupdate" behind
the scenes, to make the actual changes. They'll *think* they're doing
freeze/edit/thaw, but in actuality the mechanism will be smarter than
that :-)
