Explain mish mash.. ;-) You must be refering to the SOA portion
of the zone file? I've yet to see (or write) a tool that would do
this conversion without pain, but I could put something together
quick like.
As far as the named.conf file, you should just be able to replace
the slave line with type master and remove the excess stuff. This
does become tedious when you have hundreds of entries in
named.conf.
I usually just search and replace, etc,etc the hard way. Maybe
someone has a tool?
