			PGSQL BIND SDB driver
900526
900526
The postgresql BIND SDB driver is of experimental status and should not be 
900526
used for production systems.
900526
900526
Usage:
900526
900526
o Use the named_sdb process ( put ENABLE_SDB=yes in /etc/sysconfig/named )
900526
900526
o Edit your named.conf to contain a database zone, eg. :
900526
  
900526
zone "pgdb.net." IN {
900526
        type master;
900526
        database "pgsql  bind        pgdb     localhost pguser pgpasswd";
900526
        #                ^- DB name  ^-Table  ^-host    ^-user ^-password
900526
};
900526
900526
o Create the database zone table
900526
  The table must contain the columns "name", "rdtype", and "rdata", and
900526
  is expected to contain a properly constructed zone.  The program "zonetodb"
900526
  creates such a table.
900526
  
900526
  zonetodb usage:
900526
    
900526
    zonetodb origin file dbname dbtable
900526
900526
    where
900526
	origin : zone origin, eg "pgdb.net."
900526
	file   : master zone database file, eg. pgdb.net.db
900526
	dbname : name of postgresql database 
900526
        dbtable: name of table in database
900526
900526
    Eg. to import this zone in the file 'pgdb.net.db' into the 'bind' database 
900526
        'pgdb' table:
900526
900526

Issue this command as the pgsql user authorized to update the bind database:
900526
 
900526
# zonetodb pgdb.net. pgdb.net.db bind pgdb
900526
900526
will create / update the pgdb table in the 'bind' db:
900526
900526
$ psql -dbind -c 'select * from pgdb;'
900526
      name      | ttl  | rdtype |                        rdata

I've tested exactly the above configuration with bind-sdb-9.3.1+ and it works OK.

NOTE: If you use pgsqldb SDB, ensure the postgresql service is started before the named
900526
      service .
