Hello,
I have a BIND 9.7.1 running on a Solaris 10 box. This node is slave to certain 
zone for PTR records as shown in the named.conf file below

zone "10.in-addr.arpa" in {
        type slave;
       check-names ignore;
        file "zones/internal/10.in-addr.arpa";
        masters { 10.2.3.4; 10.5.6.7; };

So as can be seen we are using the top level domain as the PTR zone file for 
all the 10.x.x.x (10/8)address. 
However it appears in the masters nodes, they don't have a top level zone file 
and have basically broken down the top level to numerous sub domain zone files 
such as "1.10.in-addr.arpa" "2.10.in-addr.arpa" "3.10.in-addr.arpa"

This issue is that with the above config in slave the zone file transfer fails. 
So the question is does the name of the zone files in slave's config need to 
match the name of those zone files in master? Can't a slave just use a top 
level zone file domain? because that way one entry in the named.conf would 
include everything in that 10.x address domain. 
Any ideas to avoid having to add config for each subdomain level PTR zone file 
in named.conf would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Prabhat
