See /etc/named.conf and all of the pri* files within /etc/named.  These are
the files used by Bind (DNS).  You can also edit /etc/named/records with a
text file and generate the appropriate files based on the contents of
/etc/named/records by running /usr/admserv/cgi-bin/.cobalt/dns/index.cgi.
Backup the files first and then test to see what I mean.  It might be too
late to matter now, but you can manually edit the TTL in the pri* files
(among other DNS attributes) to make a DNS change less painful.

For mass search/replace operations consider downloading rpl from
http://www.laffeycomputer.com/rpl.html.  Easy to install, easy to use.  A
real time saver.  My 2 cents.
