DNS Issues

[stacy]

Hi

I have a WAN setup between my local office and my remote
office. I am running Windows 2000 Server in both
environments. My problem is that I am constantly logging
the following errors in my Event Viewer. What can I do to
rectify this.

Event ID 6527
Description: The zone xxxx.com expired before it could
obtain a successful zone transfer or update for a master
server acting as its source for the zone. The zone has
been shut down.


Event Id: 6534
Description: Failed transfer of zone xxxx.com for DNS
server at 192.168.x.x. The DNS server at 192.168.x.x
aborted or failed to coomplete the transfer of the zone.
Check DNS server at 192.168.x.x and ensure it is properly
functioning and authoratative for zone aficap.com

What can I do to stop these errors from occuring in my
Event Viewer.

Thanks

The first event (Event 6527) is indicating that the secondary DNS server
was unable to contact the primary DNS server and the zone's TTL expired.
You probably configured the two DNS servers in the two offices to replicate
the DNS zone information (primary /secondary DNS servers). However, the WAN
link is now down for whatever reason and the zone replication is not
happening. The second event (Event 6534) is indicating that the primary
server was trying to do a zone transfer but the connection was aborted.
