Another test: I changed the master IP on the slave to 1.1.1.1. Thus, every SOA check and zone transfer will fail. Nevertheless bind updates the zone file's timestamp every time it tries to transfer the zone. Tested with 9.9.8-P3. Thus, any other options with bind 9.9.8? (I have not managed to build Debian packages for bind 9.10) Thanks Klaus _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
