yes but that is, what i didnt wanted to do, or i think that its the
ugliest solution to fix it.

one better solution would be to do an IXFR on a SOA change an add the
delta the database. But i coulnd figure out howto do an IXFR Query with 
Net::DNS or pythons dnspython. Ive read RFC 1995 and tryed it with
dnspython by setting 
	Flag = AA 
	Opcode = 0 # = QUERY
	added to the AuthorityList a SOA Object # queryed before 
but dont get the response im waiting for.  
Log on the Server says:
named.query:Feb 14 16:45:40.780 client 192.168.192.88#32786: query:
rbl-plus.mail-abuse.org IN  IXFR
Feb 14 17:04:05.870 client 192.168.192.88#32786: transfer of
'rbl-plus.mail-abuse.org/IN': IXFR poll up to date

Response on the Client says:
id 8308
opcode QUERY
rcode NOERROR
flags QR RA
;QUESTION
rbl-plus.mail-abuse.org. IN IXFR
;ANSWER
rbl-plus.mail-abuse.org. 86400 IN SOA rbl-plus.mail-abuse.org.
hostmaster.rbl-plus.mail-abuse.org. 3 10800 3600 604800 86400
;AUTHORITY
;ADDITIONAL

can anyone point me to what im doig wrong on the IXFR Query ? 
Kind regards
Michael Lang
