For the DNS use UPDATE to update the address records.
Since when did that work for delegation changes?
The protocol has supported it from day 1. We've shipped
clients that supported it since 2000 (all version of BIND
9 support it). This was one of the architectual issues
that was addressed in BIND 9. We went to seperate databases
for each zone rather than a single database.
You can use UPDATE to update *any* record in a zone that
includes records that are occulted by the a delegating NS
RRset.
The only things you can't do with UPDATE (yet) are:
* provision a server to server a new zone.
* decomission a zone.
If we could get the TLD's to accept UPDATE packets I'd
write the code to do this whenever the master server
was updated (NS/glue changed) / restarted. This would
be a alternative method to going through EPP.
zone "example.com" {
type master;
file "master/example.com.db";
update-parent yes;
update-parent-key keyname;
};
