and then you have 2 problems, one of which is a security hole.

I've mostly just gone to using nsupdate  from the cli for all zone edits
in bind zones. if you ever need the clear zone file, its easily dumped

clear and simple transaction manner ( plus, easily automated  from other
scripts / code for more win )
