Dear all,
Is there a way to check that a slave zone is expired?
I use dig in the following way to see that the zone is not responding on my
server...but is this due to the fact that the zone is expired or another
problem?
dnszone002:/etc/bind/zones/slave# dig @localhost omega-pharma.be soa
Method 1: Compare the timestamp on the slave zone file with the system's
current date. Compare that difference with the expire timer in the SOA record
in the same zone file. If the difference is greater than the expire timer, then
the zone is expired.
Method 2: Check the logs.

Hugo,
This must be a configuration error on ns2.skynet.be.
The other 3 authoritative name servers answer fine, for omega-pharma.be;
ns2.skynet.be. returns the list of root name servers, meaning it isn't
configured to be slave for that domain.
Contact Skynet/Belgacom helpdesk to get this
Marc,
This example was maybe not the best one.
My questions remains as other zones are well unavailable on all name servers.

Hugo,
zones dont expire, like DNSSEC RRSIG with their end of validity time
stamp.
At worst, a slave name server is unable to verify the SOA record on the
master for expiry time.
At that point, the slave name server still knows it is authoritative,
but has no data it could answer
Marc,
Thanks for the feedback.
I have indeed seen in the logs that the zone is expired on ns2 but my question
was more general in order not to have to always try to see the logs (info not
available if the zone has expired some weeks ago..).
So..no way to check that a zone is expired?
hello list,
Anyone have the link or the software for obtaining (if exist) the rpm x86_64
compiled for openSUSE-11.4 / SLES-11 of bind-9.8.0 ?
The last release offered by the community is 9.7.3 as of this writing.

You're asking the wrong question. The correct question is, How can I
make sure that a zone is up to date on all of the slaves? You do that
by querying the SOA record for the zone on each slave and compare the
