upgrade from 4.9.5 to Bind 8.2.2p5

[muheeb]

Danny,

This sounds great to me. Can you tell me the proper way to upgrade 8.2.2-p5
to 8.2.3-T6B!. And can you please tell me more about the axfr zone transfer
problem as I noticed that my secondary DNS with is running 8.2.2-P5 is not
updating the zones it has from the primary which is running 4.9.5.

I am planning to upgrade both of them after I see stability with the
secondary with 8.2.3-T6B

waiting for your input,

Muheeb
