DNS Zone Transfer
Hi,
I've got bind9 setup on my server to host the NS for my domain. It's all working fine, but now I want to add a slave/secondary DNS. I am trying to use dns.he.net.
Output of /etc/bind/named.conf.options
So I'm hoping that allows transfers to the HE DNS servers.
I attempt to the add the domain via their control panel.
And am met with this.
What can I check/amend to make this work?
Thanks

Do you not need to add your DNS hostnames to a list for certain tld's/gtld's to work?
DomainMonster did mine when I had issues adding my nameservers to certain domains.
I've added a hostname record with GoDaddy for the dns server on my domain but I the transfer should be able to take place without any hostname records for the slave nameservers.
You need to understand how ACLs work, that's doing nothing.
Simple example of a working whitelist, not need for an ACL:
zone "kcaj.me" in{ type master; file "/etc/bind/zones/kcaj.me"; allow-transfer {216.218.133.2; 2001:470:600::2;}; notify yes; # not needed, but nice to have for fast updates };
Hi thanks, managed to get this working I think.
It seems to have initially loaded the zones across but doesn't seem to update, or atleast not frequently. Any idea how frequently it should update?
Within seconds if you use
notify yes
as I written.
