Well what NS records do you have in the child zone?  Notify looks at NS 
records, looks up the address records (A and ), then sends NOTIFY messages 
to those addresses.

Catalog zone Notifies for child zones

2023-11-08 Thread G H via bind-users
I have a master and a slave server setup with functional catalog zone 
transfers. Upon initial daemon start, the slave will pull the catalog zone, and 
then pull the domain zones contained within said catalog zone (let's refer to 
these domains as child domains).

If I modify the serial on the master's catalog zone file and restart, the slave 
will successfully receive a NOTIFY and pull down the latest catalog zone file 
contents.

However, if I modify the serial of child domain zone, no NOTIFY is ever sent. 
The only way I can get the slave server to pull down the latest contents of the 
child domain zone is to delete the /var/cache/bind contents and restart the 
slave daemon. What is the correct method of letting slave servers know that the 
child domain zones are changed? I really want to avoid putting an "also-notify" 
in the definition for child zone on the master.
