We tried - the hesiod servers *explicitly disallow* zone transfer.
(I've heard that this is because the zone transfer code does a fork,
which on an 8meg process on a machine with 6meg of ram and less than
20meg of swap space either hurts very badly or kills themachine
altogether...) Adding zone transfer to the perl code is including one
new value in the requests. No code changes.
