Re: Wrong size read

The Bind server is sending the zone transfer in a format that
QuickDNS Server doesn't understand. The old format, which is
understood by QuickDNS, is called "one-answer". The new format is
called "many-answer".

The Bind server must be configured to use the older format. In the
'options' statement block, the Bind server administrator must enter
this statement:

transfer-format one-answer;

This must replace any other transfer-format statement currently in place.

Note that one-answer format is the default for Bind 8, but
many-answer format is the default for Bind 9.
