Re: Moving from QDNS 3.5.3 (OS9) to BIND on OSX

If the script isn't working for you, try running QuickDNS Manager on
an older version of Mac OS - anything from 8.6 through (as I recall)
9.1.

Otherwise, you can export them one at a time using the following procedure:

- Open the zone in QuickDNS Manager.
- From the File menu, select Export.
- Choose location and filename.

The files will have Macintosh line breaks. You can use a
drag-and-drop utility (there are several free ones listed in
VersionTracker) to convert the whole folder to Unix line breaks.
