KEY -> DS utility
Hi, Great, all this movement towards DS records. I've always felt that they are more useful as they are reasonably verifiable, unlike a whole KEY. For those who want it, here's a simple standalone tool to translate a KEY on stdin into a DS on stdout. Just copy/paste the KEY lines from dig and you will receive the hex code and some of the other information surrounding it. Miek wrote a similar thing in Perl BTW, using Olaf's Perl module, but it's not up to me to distribute it ;-) Cheers, Rick van Rein, OpenFortress.
