Hi, I am setting up my first set of DNS servers. So far I have the master up and running fine, but I am having trouble with the slave doing zone transfers. Following is the message I see in /var/log/messages:
Jun 19 04:38:04 jupiter named[4237]: transfer of '0.0.127.in-addr.arpa/IN' from 192.168.1.6#53: failed to connect: connection refused Jun 19 04:38:04 jupiter named[4237]: transfer of '0.0.127.in-addr.arpa/IN' from 192.168.1.6#53: end of transfer Jun 19 05:21:15 jupiter named[4237]: transfer of '1.168.192.in-addr.arpa/IN' from 192.168.1.6#53: failed to connect: connection refused Jun 19 05:21:15 jupiter named[4237]: transfer of '1.168.192.in-addr.arpa/IN' from 192.168.1.6#53: end of transfer Following is a snippet from /etc/named.conf from both the master and slave servers: Master: controls { inet 192.168.1.6 allow { 192.168.1.6; 192.168.1.5; } keys { rndc_key; }; }; include "/etc/rndc.key"; zone "1.168.192.in-addr.arpa" { type master; notify yes; file "1.168.192"; allow-transfer { 192.168.1.5; }; }; --------------------------------------------------------- Slave: controls { inet 192.168.1.5 allow { 192.168.1.5; 192.168.1.6; } keys { rndc_key; }; }; include "/etc/rndc.key"; zone "1.168.192.in-addr.arpa" { type slave; file "1.168.192"; masters { 192.168.1.6; }; }; --------------------------------------------------------- I am running RH Linux 9.0 and should be completely updated on the errata and stuff. I think I'm running Bind 9. I can use rndc to control both servers locally and remotely. I have firewalls on both, and have ports 53 and 953 open for TCP source and destination. I also put named and rndc in my hosts.allow to make sure TCP Wrapper weren't causing the problem. Also, when the zone transfer does happen, will the actual files be copied over to the slave server in the named directory, or is it just something that is kept in memory? Thank you for any help you can provide. David Barkman -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
