Even though the bdbhpt ran successfully for 2 years here, it was never quite
perfect. We recently changed bdbhpt to LDAP backend. That was we can more easily
have multiple writers, and syncrepl to a localhost LDAP for both speed, and
redundancy.

I updated our scripts to talk to LDAP instead, and wrote a hack to import from
BerkeleyDB to LDAP .ldif.

I've not yet cleaned anything up and posted it. I am not sure if that is of
interest to others.

Our live customer DNS is already running DLZ+LDAP, and we are converting the
DLZ+BDBHPT RBL service to the same.

I ran quite a few performance tests to ensure it could keep up, and found after
plenty tweaking, that LDAP performed almost the same.
