I use an old script "hosts_to_named" borrowed off an old UNIX box.   I've
had pretty good luck with it over the years.  It basically builds the DNS
records by reading the /etc/hosts file.  However, you might have to tweek it
somewhat when it comes mail exchanger records, because it creates a MX
record for each host.  It's not a problem for us, but, it might be for you.
I'll be glad to send a copy to you or anyone.

        I found that putting DNS in the same server is running NetView,
the times to start to receive netmon traps,after restart Netview,
decrease dramatically. But manage DNS changing files it´s a little heavy
and easy to make mistakes, so does anybody know if there is any
interfase to admintrate DNS in AIX 4.2.1?
Thanks . . .
