NSD reload

[Josh Nertrino]

Wouter, thanks for your fast reply. Would be nice to have this feature - then NSD will be used in even more critical DNS servers around the world. Thanks!

Hi Josh,

NSD 3.0.x can secondary, with notify/ixfr it can reload existing zones 
without restart of the daemon.
Adding a new zone requires a full restart, with a modified config file.

I note this is a oft-requested feature (adding new zones without a restart).

Best regards,
   Wouter
