I take it the scenario is this:

1. Using QuickDNS Pro as DNS server, with many domains
2. Need to find all A records for a given IP address, across all domains
3. Need to find all CNAME records that reference the names found in item 2

This can be done using AppleScript. If the server is busy, it may
make sense to copy all the domain files to a workstation before
running the AppleScript.

If you need help writing such a script, just ask.
