Is there a law, or even a concensus, that says that vendors should not
implement things other than IETF standards?
On the other hand, I think Dan is wrong to criticize Nominum for not
offering these things. Just because you *can* use things like rsync
doesn't mean that they have to write the code. If someone calls Nominum
and asks "Do you offer a way to replicate named.conf files?", they're just
be truthful when they say that they don't; if someone wants to replicate
them using rsync, they need to roll their own scripts. Any decent sysadmin
should be able to do this.
