Hello Rainer,
You didn't indicate what flavor of BIND is running on the HPUX 11i system, and when /etc/named.conf has the "allow-update" phrase in the zone definition.
Take a look at your DNS log file as well as the HP ITRC documents NR0501KBRC00006813 and NR0501KBRC00006873.
I hope this helps you make some progress,

Brian,

Thanks for the hints:
I'm using bind 8.1.2 and I know the
documents NR0501KBRC00006813 and NR0501KBRC00006873.

can you tell me how to best write the logging statement in named.conf to get the most info why the update fails ???

Regards
Rainer
