Guess I should start digging in the code then :)<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Nov 17, 2008 at 5:59 PM, Evan Hunt <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:Evan_Hunt@isc.org">Evan_Hunt@isc.org</a>></span> wrote:<br>

</div>My bad--you're right. There's code I'd never noticed before that says<br>
allow-update will be ignored if update-policy is set. Whoops.<br>
<br>
(Oddly, the check only applies when both of them are defined in the<br>
zone itself. You can put "allow-updates" in the view options and<br>
"update-policy" in the zone, and named won't complain about it...<br>
but it also won't work the way you want it to.)<br>
<br>
I don't know why it was implemented this way--there's no protocol reason<br>
I can see. (There may be other reasons I don't know about.) It's probably<br>
not a high enough priority for ISC to devote engineering resources to it at<br>
this time, but if someone submitted a patch that added an ACL check to the<br>
update-policy syntax, I'm sure we'd consider it.<br>
