	Tools like dnswalk and nslint will help with debugging the 
contents of zones, but they don't do DNS infrastructure checking like 
doc does.  I was working with Dave Barr (author of dnswalk) to add 
that kind of functionality, but I haven't yet managed to get that 
done.

	In short, if you want to check things like whether your server is 
lame for a particular zone, the only tool I know of that will do that 
is doc.  See <http://www.shub-internet.org/brad/dns/> for more.
