Greetings again

No need to filter - I'm only putting ampr.org into that particular
cache file set. named.conf extract follows:

zone "ampr.org" in {
        type slave;
        masters { 132.239.1.1; 128.54.16.1; 128.49.16.6; };
        file "ampr.org";
        allow-transfer { any; };
};

zone "44.in-addr.arpa" in {
        type slave;
        masters { 132.239.1.1; 128.54.16.1; 128.49.16.6; };
        file "ampr.org.rev";
        allow-transfer { any; };
};

Does anyone any idea why my system won't serve ampr.org to another
system as is? The extraction of the uk part of ampr.org is for another
(3rd) user.
