	The problem with the DNS monitor in mon is that all it does is 
check to see if a secondary has the same SOA serial number of a zone 
as the primary.  This doesn't do you any good when checking the 
primary, or checking a caching-only server.  I had intended to write 
additional modules (or an expanded module) to handle these other 
cases, when the network monitoring issue was handed over to someone 
else.
