Re: [webmin-l] slave not creating records file

[<ax...@ax...>]

I am still having the same problem with this. Even when I create a slave =
zone
webmin, it still does not create the records file.

The directy where the records files are is owned by the user running bind=
 and
has rw permission. Does anyone have a simlilar problem?
