[ale] DNS zone transfer problem

[gene]

Steve,


It has been a little while since I did this, but I have two name servers
(slave and master, both RH7.1, BIND 9.2.0).  The only difference I see
between your config and mine is that in the master /etc/named.conf, I
have 
 
allow-transer { none; }

I'd have to look it up, but I'm thinking that is what you want because I
THINK the allow-transfer is where you say whom you will take transfers
from.
