Yes, it is a request for the NS RRset I presume...as Mark kindly pointed out, stub zones do not "transfer" by definition: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc771898.aspx >Another problem I am also having is that Windows 2008 server doesn't seem >to pick up the latest SOA i.e. it does not seem to honour the serial >number within the SOA.
