I did get that working finally. Thanks. I couldn't follow the
directions outlined in the kbase articles, as none of the terminal
commands worked at all... But I was able to manually find all the
QuickDNS files and wipe them out (logged in as root) and then reinstall
QuickDNS from scratch and import all my zones. Now just one slave
server doesn't work, but I can't play with this anymore tonight, there
isn't enough asprin in the world. :)
