[Pdns-users] pdns master and windows slave

[Liong Kok Foo]

Ah...explored more on this and here is more information.

I can't seem to update from slave when I add entries into master domain. 
Let's say I add subdomain "test.test2222.org" then I tried "reload from 
master" and "transfer from master" and both does not work.

Under windows slave dns, the settings for this slave domain, there is an 
entry that says zone file name. It shows "test2222.org.dns". Is that 
correct? For bind related settings, this entry will point to the bind 
zone file.

Then I tried removing the whole domain in windows slave and then created 
again. After creation again, all the zones in this domain does load up 
correctly.

Any idea how i can get windows slave to update from pdns master when I 
make changes to it?
