Yeah, as I said in one of the other emails, I can script something
with nsupdate if necessary. I was just hoping there was a way to add a
simple record that'd take care of it all, but now I understand that
wildcards don't really work that way, so I've scripted something.
I don't have separate zones for each of the domains; rather there's a
single top level "foo" zone. A and Ptr records are added via
DHCP/rndc, and DHCP assigns "username.foo" domain names.
My approach feels a bit "hackish" to me. Now I have several hundred
CNAME records in the .foo zone, all pointing to the same SRV record.
I'll have to deal with removing old records as users are removed, and
I'll have to make sure the script runs reliably, but it works.
I appreciate the help, anyway!
