(If you run such a script while connected to both servers, it will destroy all your data. This limitation was addressed in QuickDNS Manager 4.0, which allows you to address the delete command to a particular server.) - Connect to both servers. - Run the stock script "Add Slave Server". The delete script looks like this (though you may have to adjust the application name): tell application "QuickDNS Manager 3.5.1 (Carbon)" set theZones to the name of every zone as list repeat with theZone in theZones set theZone to theZone as text delete zone theZone end repeat end tell Chris Buxton Men & Mice - Making DNS Easy At 3:50 AM -0500 1/25/05, After Hours wrote: >Chris, > >I am moving a master QDNS system running 3.5.3 to a new IP, but will >keep the secondary where it is. > >A number of the applescripts included with 3.5 have been really >useful in the past, but in this situation, I don't see a script that >could be modified to let me update (change) each zone's option to >specify a new master for each slave DNS.
