Secondary Transfer

[Christopher Lewis]

Hi -

I've got zoneedit set up for a domain as secondary transfer, but can seem to get the transfers to work.

My named.conf.local is pretty simple:

zone "christopherlewis.com" {
type master;
file "/etc/bind/zones/christopherlewis.com.db";
allow-transfer {
64.68.198.91/32;
64.68.198.183/32;
};
also-notify {
64.68.198.91;
64.68.198.183;
};
};
​

When I look at the transfer screen, all I've ever seen was:
; Transfer failed.

It can take an hour for the system to initially take it into the config but it looks to be working for me now:

I can see that the transfers occur, but when I go to Manage Domain -> Domain Tools -> Zone File Management or Zone Export, I only see

"; Transfer failed."

That must be a glitch with the control panel, to display it in your member control panel it tries a separate zone transfer from your master which is failing. But that doesn't impact the actual operation of the zone on our nameservers. I can see your zone is live across our dns cluster so you're ok, We'll have to look at the control panel utility and see why it's not working there.
