anyone know how to prevent bind9 from returning two results to a reverse 
lookup, even if there are two PTR records in the zone file?  i'm using a 
GENERATE statement to automaticaly fill in most of the entries for a /24 
subnet which works great - except that we sometimes want a specific 
hostname for a given IP but don't want bind to give two answers (the 
autogenerated one and the manually specified one), just the [first|last] 
one.  kind of an oddball question but maybe someone can answer it before 
they move to california <wink>
