I am new on this, I am trying to give my view:

suppose you have zone us.hosts, you add notify yes; in slave you have zone
us.hosts.bak;
the master ( master IP;); I also put notify yes; if you use poll algo., you
notify us.hosts
and increment serial #, then you use kill to -HUP to load us.hosts and do
same thing in
slave machine, then slave's us.hosts.bak synchronize with us.hosts; now you
use notify
option in slave machine you don't need to kill -HUP, slave get notify then
it compare
its serial # with us.hosts in master machine, if its # lower than master's,
it do zone
transfer; I did this trial in lab. there is a trick there, we need to
explicitly put slave
machine in us.hosts, ( IN   	NS      slave's IP), the book just mentioned
change in 
named.conf, doesn't mention change in db file.

what would cause a primary bind-ns to send notifies to his slaves for
all zones that changed?

thx
