hi, At least with a recent version if it is a time sync issue nsd will do a specific log msg that.
Laura, can you send over the actual configuration? (maybe replacing the key with a placeholder or rotating the keys afterwards) It sounds strange if nsd checks tsig on the notify, but allow xfr without it.
