Of course a simple shell script can do the job (I already did that),
but to get back to the original thing: I just suggested the the djbdns
system is simpler, so why not copy it? ;-) I now wrote a shell script
that converts the djbdns way to an include file. I did not say that
Unbound is broken or so, I just suggest that things can be done in a
simpler way ;-)

And as far as the source addresses in the logfiles are concerned: I
know I can use tcpdump, but is a source address in the logfiles not an
essential item? IMHO it is...
