SOS Bind
Hi debian people I have a debian box running Bind, acting as a primary DNS server. I have update the serial numbers on the zone files but nothing is propagating out. Its been about 72 hours now and still has the old IP of the server. Bind version 8.2.3 Any help would be great appreciated :) ..Craig -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If not, then reload the named or the zone itself. Does the primary work (respond with the new info), but the secondaries still have the old info? Then make sure the primary knows to notify the secondaries. The zone file can list the other nameservers for the zone (NS records), or you can list them by IP in the also-notify directive. (Also make sure that notify is not set to no.) This is how it knows who to tell; then the slave (aka secondary) asks the primary if they need to do a zone transfer. Again, as someone else noted, be sure to look at the logs on both primary and secondary systems. Jeremy C.
