- I have had a DNS primary running for a few months, and have recently
- set up a secondary. The secondary seems to have transfered the zones
- correctly from the primary (since the backup files are all there in
- /var/named), but every 600 seconds I get a syslog message that states:
-
- pod1server named[3737]: xfer returned 255
-
- I turned debugging on on the secondary and I get this ( I included some of
- the stuff I think is correct just in case it's not really correct ):

- I'm kind of at a loss here, since everything seems to be working fine,
- can anyone point me in the right direction?

- System info:

- SunOS 4.1.1 rev b running the statndard Sun version of named.

- Thanks.
