G'day,

I'm working on Zeroconf networking (http://zeroconf.sf.net), and the next 
problem I'd like to look at is multicast DNS and Link Local Multicast Name 
Resolution (two different solutions to much the same problem).

In the long term, I'll likely use one of the C implementations (Apple has one, 
released under APSL; and the KAME project has another, under a BSD license).

However while this is being sorted out, I'd like a portable, scripted version. 
Python seems right :)

So I'm looking for a DNS server in python, if it is already written. I've done 
some searching on freshmeat.net and sourceforge, and also a bit of Googling, 
but the only thing that looked like it might be of use was dynDNS, 
http://freshmeat.net/projects/dyndns/?topic_id=250
However the link is broken. Grrr.

Has anyone else played with implementing a DNS server in python? Any code, 
tips, advice or links?

Brad
