Well, if some of the EMACS partisans are to be believed, there's no
doubt some 2-line macro that enables EMACS to function as a full
authoritative nameserver and/or recursive resolver, along with full
Dynamic Update and DNSSEC support, so it would be pretty easy to use it
for managing your DNS once that macro is activated :-)
