First find out if that IS the case: on master, is SOA serial updated
when FILE serial is (after reload)? If so, no problem.<br>
<br>
If not, chroot is oneof the usual culprits, you update file in
/var/named/..., but bind loads file in
/var/named/chroot/var/named/data/...<br>
<br>
So in your filesystem, find ALL "zone" files, check which are used
by bind and which you update.<br>
<br>
This is not rocket science, just normal file management. Usually the
file in /var/named/... is a link to the file in
/var/named/chroot/var/named/... - maybe you managed to break that
link by editing the wrong file, go searchin your own file structure.<br>

It has sometimes been seen that the files that are updated are not the

<pre> Hello all i have what is to me a very strange bind 9 master slave
transfer issue.
When i update a zone file on the master the file updates correctly
the notifies are sent and every thing seems to work perfectly
except it transfers 0 bytes to the slave. Checking the slave
confirms that indeed thier was no transfer and that the slave is
still serving the old zone, i have gon as far as to completely
delete the zone files from the slave and restart bind to my
suprise it puts back all the old files. What is going on? Below
is an example of one of the files that is not updating correctly
there are many and some of file I have updated more recently are
not even showing up in the logs of the server.

As a side not i have both machines firewalled, but have port 53
open on both machines, and have ports set using this in these
lines in the named.conf. file
query-source address * port 53;
transfer-source * port 53;
notify-source * port 53;
and see this in the dameon logs
/etc/named.conf:9: using specific query-source port suppresses
port randomization and can be insecure.

Enlarge your serial!

I've tried that had this problem for awhile that is why serial was not
dated today just picked a random zone file anyways i updated the
serial with todays date and still get the same behaviour. Strange but
the times are messed up i checked the time/date on both machines they
are very similar what is with the wierd log times?

I get lots of these 0 bytes transfers everytime i try to edit a zone
file now they keep poping up and zones never get updated on the slave
it just keeps trying and getting 0 bytes
