Does anybody know of scripts for webinterfaces which would update those
two primaries, in order to avoid double manual entries?

Assume e.g. that the firewall is for a VERY big corporation which has
several quite independent divisions, every division caring about its own
subdomain.
With such a webinterface the net admins of the single divisions could
update the DNS on both sides of the wall for their zones without asking
the firewall admin ...

Thanks!
Stefan
