Bug Description

Binary package hint: gadmin-bind

Here's an example:

Make changes to the selected resource.
%s/etc/named.conf
Couldnt find: %s
ipv4
"sites/%s/reverse.zone.ipv4"
%s/etc/sites/%s/reverse.zone
mv %s %s
"sites/%s/reverse.zone.ipv6"
"%s"
Forward zone not found: [%s]
zone
127.in-addr.arpa
hint
.ip6.arpa
ipv6
.ip6.int
%*s %*s %*s %*s %*s %s
%s/%s
%s/etc/sites/%s/reverse.zone.ipv4
9.7.b.9.a.e.e.f.f.f.f.8.3.1.2.0.%s.ip6.arpa

Those settings don't even match the paths as defined by the Debian or Ubuntu packages! Just try changing those in the UI... the application will always append /etc/named.conf no matter what you do, i.e., no way to override it. This thing has potential, but it's rather useless right now with - bad - hardcoded paths.

One other nitpick is the misuse of "IE" - should be "i.e.", and in the context, the author meant "e.g." since s/he is giving an example, not saying "that is".
