QuickDNS Remote only accepts connections from QuickDNS Manager, which is itself not controllable by other programs on Windows (other than keyfake programs like Easy Macro). Therefore, the best option for you may be to simply read /var/named/conf/zones, or else start from a directory listing from either /var/named/conf/zoneopt/* or /var/named/hosts/*/*.

Getting a list of zones is not an easy matter. On the Mac side, QuickDNS Manager is scriptable. In fact, there's an AppleScript we included called Zone Report that lists all of your zones in a text file. You may be able to adapt this script for your needs. Of course, as you noted, there's no way to select multiple zones in the Manager window. ____________________________________________________________________ Chris Buxton Men & Mice support@menandmice.com Making DNS Easy
