Zone Transfer Problems

I've tried ...

/usr/sbin/chroot /export/home/dns /usr/local/sbin/named-xfer -z
mytestdomain.com -f test.results -d 3 -l test.log 10.197.0.60

The result (created in the file test.log.ACaq8a) ...

>> domain `mytestdomain.com'; file `test.results'; serial 0
>> zone found (2): "mytestdomain.com", source = test.results
>> addrcnt = 1
>> getzone() mytestdomain.com secondary
>> address [10.197.0.60] AXFR
>> connecting to server #1 [10.197.0.60].53
>> close(5) succeeded

Also, dig is fine and can do a full axfr from the primary nameserver
(10.197.0.60) - the secondary address is 10.197.0.61.

Did you try

chroot $CHROOT /usr/sbin/named-xfer -z zone.com -f db.zone 1.2.3.4

to see if named-xfer can run in the chroot environment?
