[Pdns-users] Two things - broken thread

[Tomasz Brzezina]

I have to change e-mail, so I lost connection to thread, sorry for 
inconvinience:

Exactly - I have everywhere MASTER/SLAVE - no NATIVE at all.

2. According to manual, if I change SOA's serial number to 0, pdns will
test all records in that domain on last_change, and choose the bigger.
But if i change it to 0, SOA is equal to current time, not biggest
last_change. Am I wrong?

But why it changes? I really want to have a SOA calculated of 
last_change...
