cannot synchronize BIND9 with WIN2000 DNS AD

['chris']

hi

I cannot synchronize BIND9 with WIN2000 DNS from Active Directory.
I've created on linux a slave Zone for domain.net, but get following error message:

Nov 7 13:29:38 ns1 named[1055]: transfer of 'domain.net/IN' from 192.168.1.10#53: failed while receiving responses: REFUSED
Nov 7 13:29:38 ns1 named[1055]: transfer of 'doamin.net/IN' from 192.168.1.10#53: end of transfer

I have BIND version 9.2.4

knows someone why WIN2000 DNS refused the zone transfer ?

kind regards
chris

Go to your windows server.
click on start,then choose run
type dnsmgmt.msc
expand the relevant zone.
Right click on it and choose properties.
Then go to "zone transfers" tab
and check the "allow zone transfer" ,while to any server is selected,or you can specify an IP of servers to which allow the zone transfer.

In the Windows DNS console you must enable:

"bind secondaries"

thanks,

but cannot find "bind secondaries" option on
the Windows DNS console.

It's in the avdanced tab:

"allow zone transfer" is to any server

"bind secondaries" is enabled,

but still doesn't work and I get the same error messages.

Check if you can reach the dns server on port 53?
telnet dnserver 53

['chris']

telnet dnserver 53 is working

[Alexander Chuzhoy]

see if the user (under which dns is working) is allowed to create files in place that's specified in named.conf file.


Besides what version of linux is it?
If it's redhat 4 or fedora 3 or higher then the files should be created in /var/named/chroot/var/named
by default and not in /var/named

local dns server SLAVE: debian sarge with BIND version 9.2.4

remote dns server MASTER: WIN2000 Active Directory

should I create a windows user on linux ?
