Zone transfer issues on new domain

Hi

This looks ok to me, does the file exist? Is it writable by named.

I am not quite sure but I think named will make the file if it does not
exist, it needs to be able to make the file in the directory etc. Normal
admin stuff.

In general when you add a slave on a master(notify), that does not mean
you always control the slave, so it does not automatically mean that the
slave, you have pointed your notify at, is willing to actually serve the
domain in question. Also if you want to be a slave of some domain, that
does not automatically mean that the domain is willing to be slaved by
you; you may not be granted access to do AXFR or IXFR.

This is at least one of the reasons slaves don't automatically pick up
the domains we think they should automagically start serving.

I hope it starts to work now.
