i talk about web-interfaces generating complete zonefiles from scratch out of a records table, orchestrating 4 remote nameservers with the data which must be also maintainable by normal operators and last but not least perfectly integrated in already self developed admin backends for other services - well, and since the nameservers are pulling ready-to-use zone-content via cronscript additional nameservers could be added without touch anything but sql permissions on the internal infrastructure "This allows resource records to be added or removed from a zone without manually editing the zone file" don't create you a zone from scratch based on database records nor adds it the zone from "named.conf" or would remove it based on a webbackend such command line tools are nice but not useable to do the same as a database backed webinterface maintaining 4 nameservers with different IP addresses for two of them in case of otherwise mirrored records for each zone - how do you integrate this in cronjobs? in our case the cronjob pulls the complete zone-content out from a database and writes it to disk, the single records are to re-create the two textfields with the zone internal and WAN additionally it's completly error-prone implement that way triggers like "oh that domain got recently a mail-address in DBMail so now we add a MX record if not already there as well as autoconfig and autodiscover in the database via the DNS-API class" which does codewise the same as if you would add that 3 records in the webUI
