the way you test zone transfers is:<br>
<br>
dig <a href="http://metm.org" target="_blank">metm.org</a>. axfr @primary<br>

Also in other cases of debugging broken slave servers, but not this<br>
case, you may want to check:<br>
<br>
dig <a href="http://metm.org" target="_blank">metm.org</a>. soa @<primary or secondary><br>
<br>
and look at the serial number. The slave will not AXFR unless the<br>
master has a higher serial number. but, that is not your problem<br>
because the slave is reporting SERVFAIL rather than old data---your<br>
guess that the slave cannot download the zone and the Expire time in<br>
the SOA has elapsed, is probably right.</blockquote><div><br> <br></div></div></div>I just increased the serial number to try to force a notify of the slaves -- nothing happend<br>removed all the allow-transfer clauses from named.conf (which used to have an acl with all the slaves in it)<br>
<br>and still the secondarys give a SERVFAIL .... grrr<br><font color="#888888"><br>Marco<br>
