BIND 8 slave & BIND 4.x primary

[SOLARlS at aol.com]

I also noticed that the date on my primary and secondary name servers are 
different.  The secondary is behind the primary by about 12 hours.

This is what my /var/adm/messages looks like.  I have a lot of domain 
registrations.  So I in an a record said that uc.websgt.net is pointed at 
209.185.204.85 and all domain registrations have a CNAME pointing them at 
uc.websgt.net.  Can this cause a loop?  If the slave name server can't find a 
.db file in the primary will it just stop or will it skip it?

Also I found some mistakes in my named.conf in the slave bind 8.x name server 
then fixed the mistake changed some serial numbers and still can't get the 
name server to update properly.  Is there a problem with having a 4.x primary 
and 8.x slave.

 Have you checked /var/adm/messages on the secondary server to see if there
 are any error messages?
