> What have I done wrong or not done correctly following the installation?
This is discussed in the release notes for BIND 9.9. The default masterfile format for slave zones is now "raw" instead of "text". When you upgrade your server, it will try to load the zones using raw format. Since they were in text format, it will fail; it will then retransfer the zones from their master servers, and dump them again in raw format. The old text files get renamed to db-XXXXX, and can be safely removed. If you still want the local backups of your slave zones to be in text format, you can specify that in named.conf by setting "masterfile-format text;" in each of the zones. But, raw zones load from disk twice as fast as text, so personally, I'd just leave it the way it is. -- Evan Hunt -- e...@isc.org Internet Systems Consortium, Inc. _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
