Hello BIND users I have a very strange problem with AXFR. We are using a master and a secondary DNS Server with an internal and an external view. Depending on the source address the secondary server will get the internal or external view for zone transfer.
Everything is working correct so far except only one specific zone file won't get transferred. In the external view there are about 70 zones defined. Every zone will get transferred except one and only one won't. Therefor there can't be a problem with the firewall. Then I scaled down the seconday DNS server to just about 2 zones and again: this specific zone file won't get transfered even the master said "AXFR started" and "AXFR ended" for this particular zone. On the secondary server I'll get "giving up: timed out". To test zone transfer by DIG I shut down the internal IP interface so the AXFR request used the external IP interface for the zone transfer and everything was ok (zone transfer succeeded). I also checkd the zonefile against nonASCII chars. Everything looks correct. I'm realy confused (by the way: we are still using BIND-0.9.5) Do you have any idea ... ?
