Hey, *I* didn't spread any rumors. :)

Can you try this command?

echo -ne "update add foo.caresswm.org. 3600 A 192.168.1.200\nupdate add
200.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa. 3600 IN PTR foo.caresswm.org\n\n" | nsupdate
-k /etc/bind/Kexample.com.+157+98327.private

If I change "192.168.1.200\nupdate" to two ("\n\n") newline characters,
it works. Otherwise, no.
