If named tells that a master is unreachable, it means that it has tried to reach the master without success, so the master is unreachable. It's not about "knowing" master is reachable. The whole fact that master sent a notify to slave does NOT mean that the master is reachable from the slave, it only means that slave is reachable from the master. > Is this a bug or a configuration problem? Please help. Thank you. It's apparently configuration problem. Either the slave tries to reach the master using wrong source IP address (0.0.0.0#0 means it leaves this to system) or the master does not allow traffic from slave (e.g. firewall). try watching network flow between slave and master (capturing packets to/from master on the slave and vice versa). -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uh...@fantomas.sk ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.
