Zone files

Where do you get these from? Only place I've seen them is at premiumdrops, but you have to pay the monthly fee.

New question: How are you analyzing these lists? Are you using publicly available software or did you create your own?

Normally you analyze the zone files using custom made scripts.
Because people have different purposes.

You need to contact verisign to be granted access to their FTP server.

GoDaddy lets you configure zone file for a domain in the Domain Manager.

Other registrars have a different procedure. I remember Yahoo Domains (back when they were fair) used to require a phone call and 72 hours to set up a zone file.

Ones you've done this, you have to configure the receiving server to respond.

I believe the OP was asking about .com/.net zone file. The .com zone file contains all registered .com domains including the nameservers. Nothing to do with the "zone" in Godaddy control panel.
