hi,

i've installed

 named -v
  BIND 9.9.2-rpz+rl.028.23-P1

i've registered my nameserver IP with spamhaus for use of its RPZ list;
i've been approved for access.

i've setup my bind9 conf for slave access to a spamhaus RPZ

        ...
        acl rpz4_spamhaus     { 199.168.90.51; 199.168.90.52;
        199.168.90.53; };
        masters rpz4_spamhaus { 199.168.90.51; 199.168.90.52;
        199.168.90.53; };
        ...
          channel bind_rpzlog {
            file "/var/log/bind-rpz.log" versions 10 size 5m;
            print-time yes;
            print-category yes;
            print-severity yes;
            severity debug;
          };
        ...
          category rpz           { bind_rpzlog;    };
        ...
        view "internal" {
        ...
        response-policy {
          zone "drop.rpz.spamhaus.org";
        };
        ...
          zone "drop.rpz.spamhaus.org" IN {
            type slave;
            file "/namedb/slave/drop.rpz.spamhaus.org.zone";
            masters { rpz4_spamhaus; };
            allow-query { localhost; };
            allow-transfer { rpz4_spamhaus; };
            request-ixfr yes;
            notify no;
          };
        ...

Bind launches initially with no errors, but xfer log eventually reports:

        ...
        07-Mar-2013 13:26:25.657 xfer-in: error: transfer of
        'drop.rpz.spamhaus.org/IN/internal' from 199.168.90.51#53:

        ...

the RPZ log @ /var/log/bind-rpz.log is created on bind start, but is
completely empty.

if i

  rndc -k /usr/local/etc/named/keys/rndc-key retransfer
  drop.rpz.spamhaus.org

logs show only

 ==> /var/log/bind-main.log <==
  07-Mar-2013 13:58:43.576 general: info: received control channel
  command 'retransfer drop.rpz.spamhaus.org'

but nothing improves/changes.
 
I've no idea as to why the 'failed to connect' message.  As an obvious
result, no local zone file is created/written.

Where should I start looking/debugging for the cause of this failed
transfer?  Any other hints?

Thanks!
