Do you have the script to create secondary zone? thanks!

[davidw]

My secondary DNS is a mess. I modify the primary dns file directly, but my
secondary dns doesn't update. After I modified primary dns file, I updated
its SOA too, not sure why the transfer doesn't work.

So what I can do now is delete the secondary zone and create again. I am not
sure if you have a script I can use, since there are a lot of entries to
create.

thanks

Did you reload the zone?

Did you "allow zone transfers" on the Master (e.g., Primary)?

Did you check for firewalls between the DNS servers, and on
the Master?

Can you use NSLookup from the Secondary to query the zone
specifically against the Master DNS (i.e., Primary DNS):

nslookup someName IP.of.DNS.Master

Failing all of that, try checking the Secondary to ensure it
uses the correct IP of the master when specifying the zone.
