BIND slave records not updating
I'm not a member of any bind list, so I was hoping to be able to ask my
question here. I have primary DNS with bind 9.2.4 on Linux servers where
there are web GUI's for management. I keep slave records on two FreeBSD
servers that serve as our ns1 and ns2, one is 6.1 with the bind port
bind9-9.3.3 and it works fine. The other is FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE with
bind9-base-9.3.4, not sure what the base difference is, can someone tell
me? This 5.4 server is not updating when changes are made to the
primary. I see in the logs on the primary that notifies are sent and the
9.3.3 server, which is at a different facility, updates within minutes,
the 5.4 machine on the local network does not. I can't find any bind log
information in /var/log/messages on the FreeBSD servers, where would
that be? I have to remove the '.bak' zone file and restart the bind
process, then it brings over the new zone file as it should re-creating
the '.bak' file. I checked the perms on all the files involved,
comparing to the 6.1 machine. The zone files all owned by the bind
process user.
zone example.com {
type slave;
file slave/example.com.bak;
masters { 10.0.0.48; };
allow-query { 0.0.0.0/0; };
};
esmtp# ls -lah /var/named/etc/namedb/slave/tpghotels.com.bak
-rw-r--r-- 1 bind wheel 635B Feb 13 08:19
/var/named/etc/namedb/slave/example.com.bak
Again, this exact same setup on the other BSD server works perfectly.
The allow-transfer on the primary seems to be working fine since
deleting the zone file on the slave and restarting pulls the zone fine.
This is our workaround for now, but a pain.
Is there a problem with running the different bind9 versions? I can't
really do anything about the primary server considering we rely on yum
and recommended updates by the system repositories. So, should I keep my
slave BSD boxes on that same version 9.2.4?
Thanks in advance!

Re: BIND slave records not updating
I run multiple FreeBSD versions with Bind and have not had a problem with
records being updated. Are you properly setting the new serial numbers in
the master record files?

I update via a GUI on the server running Bluequartz GUI. The zone file serial number changes from 2007020501 to 2007021301 after changing one today. The other BSD server hosting slave records is pulling the updates fine, just this one that is not. Is there anywhere in the logs to find what is happening. All I've been able to find in logs is on the master server indicating notifies sent to the IP address of the problem server. -- Robert ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
