Thank you for clarifying this for me, Kevin. I've inherited a cluster
of DNS servers that has several dozen zones configured. I suspect
most of these zones are defunct, not in use, etc. but I want to watch
the logs to be absolutely sure. In addition to being authoritative
servers for these zones, they also serve as general-purpose DNS
servers for a particular environment.
I guess I could log everything and pipe the data through grep to
extract info about hosts in a particular zone.

Great, this is the answer I was looking for.
Thanks,
Sean
