DNS Zone Transfers

[Johan Booysen]

If you completely restart I believe you lose all cached information, but
using rndc this way will retain the cache.

Or try:

rndc reload 

on the secondaries if you don't want to completely restart named.

You can try restarting bind on the slave boxes, that should trigger them
to check in with the master....

Hello,

Could someone tell me how to force a zone transfer?

I have BIND running on my Linux server, with two slave zones, and I'm
trying to force a zone transfer with the master.  There are changes on
the master, the serial numbers for the zones have been incremented, and
the master is configured to notify all secondaries.  As I understand it,
the notification should cause the secondaries to compare serial numbers
and update their zones if the serial number on the master is larger that
the serial number it has in its zone.  But no updates are taking place.

Is there some way to force the zone transfer?  Is there something I'm
missing?

Thank you.
