<p>Problem with Net::DNS is that it is looking over the Internet at a functioning DNS server. I'm looking at tools to parse the raw BIND zone files and look for errors that would prevent a server from starting.</p>
<p>Further, certain entries are perfectly allowed on a working server, but can indicate an oversight. A record like this:</p>
<code>
@ IN MX 10 mail.example.com
</code>
<p>This is a MX record pointing to mail.example.com.example.com. Perfectly legit to an external source, but not really pointing where the author wanted. That's the kind of thing I'd like to generate a warning on, on the admin side of things.</p>
<p>I suspect what I'm asking for is a very large library of REs that might have something useful in terms of DNS.</p>
