Hi Peter,

This is a common misunderstanding with most people. They mistakenly assume that if a process is listening on port X, that it will also initiate outgoing connections from the same port X.

Even though your DNS2 NSD is _listening_ on port 53000, when it makes an _outgoing_ TCP connection to DNS1 NSD for XFR of "my_domain.net", it will use a random source port. However, you are _only_ allowing connections from DNS2's IP and a specific source port in the "provide-xfr" directive on DNS1's NSD. Just remove the @53000.

DNS1 with NSD.conf relevant settings

NSD Port: 54000

ip-address: 192.168.1.2
do-ip4: yes
port: 54000
