For a dynamically updated zone (using Solaris 5.8 bind 8.2.2-P5 on master
nameserver), how would you recover the dns data if the master server goes
down or crashes???

Since the db files on disk do not contain the latest nsupdates how do you
recover if the system goes down.. In previous mail message, the up-to-date
dns zone data is in a "non-volatile storage location".  Is this cache???
When you send a nsupdate command it immediately goes here from my
understanding..So where is this location and how do you back it up ?   

Thanks
Frank
