we're running bind 8.2.2 primary only on solaris 2.5.1 and another 
provider is providing our secondary dns. The messages file on the 
sun machine is showing entries like these:

Apr 29 04:06:43 dns.resell.net named[4648]: unapproved AXFR from
[206.197.81.10].57519
 for "cometome.com" (acl)
Apr 29 04:07:17 dns.resell.net named[4648]: unapproved AXFR from
[206.197.81.10].57533
 for "wellbeing.com" (acl)
Apr 29 04:08:01 dns.resell.net named[4648]: unapproved AXFR from
[206.197.81.10].57550
 for "cloister.com" (acl)

The secondary name service is 206.197.81.10. Do the above messages 
mean that the secondary dns is being blocked from pulling records? 
if yes what would cause this? below is a copy of our primary name
service named.conf header. Is there a wrong setting here? thanks in 
advance!
