Make it a slave, using text format instead of raw format. Then in the event of a disaster, change all the zone statements from slave to master. That way, you won't be dependent on OS processes for transferring and synchronizing the data between the two masters. Your other choice is to use rsync to synchronize files between the two masters, perhaps as a cron job. Chris Buxton
