[Pdns-users] ZoneTransfers

[Jeffrey Hathaway]

Ok,

Well then this brings up another problem.  A Bind server at my ISP is trying
to gather my zone files.  But it comes back in thier log files as a bad
response.  Doesn't give any more info but that.  Just as a bad response.  we
figures it would be because of the SOA deal.  Any idea's?
