Weatherbee" To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: NAMESERVER Setup Problems Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I think this is an access control default for the freebsd nameserver because named in other oses doesn't default to disallowing (ls -d in nslookup) i set up a secondary which points to my primary and I believe this is the reason the secondary cannot transfer the zone file from the primary freebsd machine. How do i make it so zone file transfers are allowed. I looked at the freebsd named man page and it briefly mentions the 'xfrnets' directive i tried to use that but it did not seem to have an effect perhaps I am doing it wrong. Thanks for any help you can provide.
