Comment (by jreed):

 Replying to [comment:5 vorner]:
 > So, I have a guess: you typed zone_name="." master=127.0.0.1, which took
 zone_name="." as a whole as zone name and master=127.0.0.1 as the next
 positional parameter, the zone_class. In that sense, the error message
 from xfrin is correct, since it is clearly invalid class string.

 But that is correct syntax.

 about it? I see some options:

 I may misunderstand. This appears to already work.

 better

 something else (eg. they contain =)

 I can not reproduce the problem. I didn't clear document how I hit the
 problem and I can't remember.

 I think this ticket may be closed. I can re-open if I realize how I did
 this.
