SV: SV: ACL and notify

[Ronni Jensen]

This is getting quite annoying.. can't be true that it isn't possible,
can it?

Zytrax describes it in their ACL examples too...

Looks like its just not allowed.  From the man page:
also-notify [ port integer ] { ( ipv4_address | ipv6_address )
     [ port integer ]; ... };

compare that to:
allow-notify { address_match_element; ... };

I guess also-notify is strictly an IP address list.  I guess that also 
means my favorite online source for bind config information is wrong, as

they use also-notify in their acl example documentation.

If you really want something along these lines I suppose you could use a

macro processor like m4 to do variable expansion.  But, Eww...
