No, I don't think so.

Perhaps the behaviour in flush-zones-on-shutdown (which defaults
to "no") is what you're thinking of?

See also "rndc sync".

Well, TBH, I've got different sites saying different things :-/

Sticking with the more reputable resources, e.g. Zytrax, they agree
with your assessment:

Yeah, but I must own up to never actually having tested this - just now done so, shutting down named with "rndc stop" did, indeed, write out the zone.

My journal's NEVER getting written to the zone files.  Not after 15
minutes, or several days.  Can't seem to figure out why not.

Days? That surely must be permissions?

As per my other email - attach a strace to the bind process, and run "rndc sync" / "rndc freeze" to force an immediate write-out - if there's a permission problem the error should be apparent.

I'd expect to see something in the logs with a permissions issue though...
