Calculating queries per second (BIND 9)

[Chris Pile]

I've since written this script:
http://www.snoogans.co.uk/files/rndcstats.pl

Which gives a much better idea how your DNS server is performing

"perldoc rndcstats.pl" for info and usage syntax.

Basically when you run it, initially do "./rndcstats.pl start", then
after that use "./rndcstats.pl".  Pretty simple really.

Anyone that downloaded it before, you might want to grab it again.  I've
updated it and fixed a few bugs (details in header).

Output will look something like:

bash-2.04# ./rndcstats.pl
rndc: stats command successful
