Your ISP is correct. Based on your query to dns2, it looks like it is NOT pulling the primaries zones. i.e. configured as a slave zone. Double check your zone definition on dns2 and also insure that your primary is configured to ALLOW dns2 to pull these zones. i.e. the "allow-transfer" directive. Example: On my primary 192.168.9.2... slave's ip is 192.168.8.2 # Load the internal mydomain.com zone as master zone "mydomain.com" in { type master; notify yes; allow-update { key dhcp_updater; }; allow-transfer { 192.168.8.2; }; file "int/db.mydomain"; }; # Load the internal 192.168.9.0/24 reverse zone zone "9.168.192.in-addr.arpa" in { type master; notify yes; allow-update { key dhcp_updater; }; allow-transfer { 192.168.8.2; }; file "int/db.192.168.9"; }; On my secondary name server... # Load the internal mydomain.com zone as slave zone "mydomain.com" in { type slave; file "int/db.mydomain"; masters { 192.168.9.2; } ; }; # Load the internal 192.168.9.0/24 reverse zone as slave zone "9.168.192.in-addr.arpa" in { type slave; file "int/db.192.168.9"; masters { 192.168.9.2; } ; }; Steve Cowles -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
