bind-dlz is very useful for dynamic provisioning of customer sites by 
inserting data into a database table.  I have a case where I support an 
application with hundreds of domains which all use the same DNS RR as 
they are hosted on the same set of servers (web, mail, ftp, etc..). 
This allows me to create a table with all of the DNS values and then 
create a view which combines the previous table with another table that 
has a simple list of all domains hosted.  This has worked out very well 
for this particular case.

A big thanks to the bind-dlz developers for this great piece of code.
