Hi....,

i need help on the configuration file for the BIND dns.
I have two nameservers running , primary & secondary

The primary config file is to allow only the secondary to do a
zone transfer...

*primary config file

/*creates a named address match list*/
  acl name{ ns1 };

 adddress_match_list = ns1*1.2.3.4;

options{
//etc;
listen-on { 5.6.7.8; }
allow-transfer { ns1; };
//etc;
            }

*secondary config file

     options{
  listen-on {1.2.3.4;};

           allow-query { any; };

  transfer-format many-answers;

  named-xfer "/opt/BIND/sbin/named-xfer";

  check-names master fail;
  check-names slave warn;
  check-names response ignore;
      };

can i get anymore help...cos i cant find any more help
in the html or man pages.
It does not allow zone transfers from ns1..is this
b'cos the setup is wrong( help??)

the examples dont go as far on zone transfers..

thanx.
