Thanks Ketil, and Paul! I will redo the tests next week (I'm currently 
travelling) with the suggested script. Let's hope this will have the 
expected effect.

Anyway, I've been parsing the documentation ('/doc') trying to find what 
you're suggesting, but so far I've failed. Can you please point me to 
where this is actually documented? (And yes, I'm not very proficient 
with djbdns as have already been suggested by some people, but I would 
like to have a better understanding of it...)

All best
Mathias
