Hello all,<div><br></div><div> I just want to say thank you for all the responses. Now it works! I removed the slave zone, but I also had to change the master configuration to use <a href="http://db.example.br">db.example.br</a> rather than db.example.br.signed, then re-sign the zone and then back to use db.example.br.signed.</div>

Shut down the slave server(s).<br>
Use scp or rsync to copy over the zone file, one with a corrected serial <br>

If I have access to the slave, I just deleted slave zone and issue "rndc reload". It will transfer the missing zone.<br>
<br>
Several advantages:<br>
<br>
No need to shut down slave.<br>
Less typing/less chance to mis-type something.<br>

If you have control over all the slaves, then using "rnds retransfer [zone]"<br>
on them for each zone with serial number trouble is easier still.<br>
<br>
If you don't have such control, you are more or less stuck with using<br>
serial number wrapround in the style of RFC 1982. Even if you do that<br>
right, you may find DNS server implementations on the slaves that don't.<br>
As we discovered in September 2009, when we did the last stage of wrapping<br>
our serials round from YYYYMMDDNN style to seconds-since-1970, the<br>
stealth-slaving Windows DNS servers of that time (even the 2008<br>
ilk) just could not cope, and went into a tizzy continuously trying<br>
to fetch the zones and then rejecting them for their "smaller" serials.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
