[Pdns-users] anual AXFR works, automatic does not (txt-version)

Need to add one thing:

You where in fact for a part correct. By using Poweradmin (some time 
ago), I created a new zone. Poweradmin however makes a soa with a 
default value of 0, if I remember correctly. I'm not sure if everyone 
uses a NULL field als notified_serial, but if this notified_serial is 0 
(or maybe if PowerDNS thinks that NULL == 0), then the new zone (without 
any records) will not be updated untill records are added.

I also read that PowerDNS is not automatically changing the SOA record 
to a "yymmddxx" value since some version. So, in this case it could be 
that, for a domain where PowerAdmin did not raise the SOA field >0, the 
domain is not transferred to the slave. And PowerAdmin is correct, 
because in the documentation of PowerDNS (some threat on Poweradmin 
refers to that) it is stated that PowerDNS automatically set's the 
correct SOA.

Bottom line: this bug should be fixed some day, but is not likely to 
occur often.

With kind regards / Met vriendelijke groet,
