Hello there,

Another problem today.

I'm getting the message in my named log file :
Apr 20 07:23:32 ns2 named[24994]: Zone "DON1.seq.net" (file slave/db.
DON1.seq.net): no SOA RR found

The thing is, it's ONLY on the secondary, on the primary the zone is loaded
without any problems.
I'm using Bind 8.2.3, with IXFR enabled. To me it looks like there's a
problem during the zone transfert (maybe because of IXFR?) , the secondary
is not loading the SOA. Here's the begining of the zone file on the
seconday
