Hi Steve,

There is BIND-DLZ and MyDNS to look at but I think both work directly
using a bind db driver so no possibility of editing the zone "by hand"
(unless you hack some export/import script using the zone transfer
functionality.

My company developed something that works with both GUI and text zone
edition including versioning, but it's not open source unfortunately.
It can drive any auth. nameserver software, not just bind.

I'm sure there might be other solutions around that do this as well
(though I haven't found one yet ;)

Cheers,
Phil
