The primary server will have correct information about the top-level domains and the secondary server will have correct information about second-level domains and below. The bug is in the asynchronous zone transfer program "in.named-xfer" which is incorrectly setting the origin for the top-level domains. INSTALL: As root make a copy of the old file: mv /usr/etc/in.named-xfer /usr/etc/in.named-xfer.orig Now copy the new version to /usr/etc and set owner and permissions: cp `arch`/in.named-xfer /usr/etc chown root /usr/etc/in.named-xfer chmod 755 /usr/etc/in.named-xfer
