>>Hi,
Hello,
>>Is the zone not transferring at all, or is it just the updates that's
>>not transferred to the AD slave server?
It's not transferring at all.
>>If the zone is not transferring at all: Did yo modify the "Allow
>>transfer" property of the zone ?
yes, I change the parameter to allow zone transfers from the AD
>>If the updates is not transferring: I believe automatic increment of the
>>zone serial number will be supported in IPA 3.0. The IPA developers will
>>have to confirm that. However you can manually change the serial number
>>under Zone Settings.
Yes, I also read this information but I was hoping there was some other
solution to the issue. And I've done manually change the serial number of
the zone but without success
>>Hope this helps.
Thanks

>>Regards,
>>Siggi
