HS zone xfer fails with formerr with bind9

[Jeff Bailey]

So replacing the master is the only hope?  I'm in the
process of moving the master anyway (the old one will
be gone completely this summer) but it's going to be
a slightly prolonged transition and this is causing
some difficulty.  Thanks for the info.  I'll look at
the possibility of moving to 9 on the current master.

Thanks,
  Jeff
