What is the easiest way to transfer my existing Microsoft DNS zones/records to djbdns?
What is the easiest way to convert 500+ bind dns zone files to tinydns format?
How can I import bind (or tinydns) zone files into a mysql database?

Configure your Microsoft DNS server to allow the machine 
running "tinydns"/"axfrdns" to perform "zone transfer" 
database replication; and, for each "zone", suck the data out 
of the Microsoft DNS server's database using "zone transfer" 
and merge it into the local database.
The procedure for doing so is exactly the same procedure for 
doing so with BIND (using "axfr-get" under "tcpclient") that is 
given in the "djbdns" documentation.
