; Okay, my fingers are getting tired.  BIND 8.1 and BIND 9.1 and later supports 
; a shortcut.  $GENERATE creates a record for each value in the 
; numerical range specified in the first argument, replacing any $
; in the template with the current value of the iterator.  

; Set up the rest of the station records.


; Set up CNAMEs for www1.example.com and so on.


; Delegate owner1.example.com and so on to the individual stations.


; The $GENERATE shortcut is normally used to simplify delegating 
; subnets on a non-octet boundary.  (This is for non-traditional 
; network sizes -- everything but /8, /16, and /24 subnets.)
