[Pdns-users] Temporarily disable SOA requirement for slave AXFR

[Michael Fincham]

Hi all,

I'm trying to set up a delegated zone on my master PowerDNS server to be
slaved out to my slaves, however even if I pdns_control notify the
slaves, they don't AXFR the zone instead throwing this error:

Sep  3 13:02:20 service-1 pdns[6115]: Error trying to retrieve/refresh
'example.com': Query to '192.0.2.1' for SOA of 'example.com' produced a
NS record

(Obviously these aren't the real zone or IP)

The master hasn't got an SOA and shouldn't have one, so is there a way
to avoid this check?

On the master the zone only has these records:

sqlite> select * from records where domain_id=13;
id|domain_id|name|type|content|ttl|prio|change_date
13260|13|example.com|NS|ns1.someotherzone.invalid|86400||
13261|13|example.com|NS|ns2.someotherzone.invalid|86400||
