I'm not quite sure where this should be posted but here goes:

It's a real pain to update two maps for the nameserver (ie - the hosts map
and the reverse map) every time I add a machine, so I wrote a program to
generate the reverse map given the hosts map.  This program isn't the
greatest, but it seems to be working.  My problem is that now I want to
split the maps into several files, one per domain.

The question is, has someone already written a program to generate multiple
reverse maps from multiple host maps?  Is there an FTP site with nameserver
utilities?   Any pointers would be appreciated.  :-)
