Re: [webmin-l] Bind Module Request

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

Yes that is true for a single server.

I create the zone bindtest.com with 3 default entries. After pressing the
"apply changes" the zone file does indeed get created.
After the zone file is created though, the master sends notifies to my sl=
aves.
They in turn respond with "not authoritive" as they do not have a copy of=
 the
zone file yet and cannot check the SOA entry.

Master creates
Feb 03 23:56:58.925 general: loading configuration from '/etc/bind/named.=
conf'
Feb 03 23:56:58.931 general: zone bindtest.com/IN: loaded serial 20060203=
00
Feb 03 23:56:58.932 notify: zone bindtest.com/IN: sending notifies (seria=
l
2006020300)

Slaves respond

Feb 03 16:00:57.502 notify: received notify for zone 'bindtest.com': not
authoritative
Feb 03 14:57:09.801 notify: received notify for zone 'bindtest.com': not
authoritative
