I run a network of two machines on Debian 2.2 (potato). apt-get
upgraded bind this evening, and since then, reverse name lookup on the
master name server for my domain has been broken.
The machines are as follows:
poulenc (172.16.0.1)
prokofiev (172.16.0.2)
poulenc is the master name server for the domain
herts.counterfactual.org (not visible to the outside world).
The logs (extract below) show that bind now has some problem upon
reading in the configuration files. Error messages include "...not at
zone top..." and "...outside zone...".
Does anyone have ideas as to why this has suddenly stopped working and
generated these error messages?
Many thanks for any help.
