It is easy enough to build the forward zones (except for verifying that your MX and CNAME entries don't reference other CNAMES), but painful to do the reverse ones. Is there a simple packaged script to do a sanity/syntax check and make the reverse zone files for you?

the ones I've seen have been woefully inadequate. many of my domains stretch across multiple IP providers, not all of whom I have RDNS on anyways.

re: cname's, I'm of the opinion that you shouldn't use CNAME within your own domain(s), and only use them if you can't possibly use anything else... About the ONLY place I use them is things like aiming a host at something like google where you HAVE to use a CNAME.
