In QuickDNS 3.5.x, QuickDNS Remote on the slave server would tell the server to update whenever the zone was changed. In QuickDNS 4.x, we rely on the DNS Notify mechanism. - QuickDNS Server for Mac OS 9 doesn't support DNS Notify. - Since the two servers are managed separately, QuickDNS doesn't tell the slave to update. Therefore, the only way that the slave server updates is using the old scheduled refresh mechanism, which is controlled by the Refresh, Retry, Expire, and Serial entries in the SOA record at the top of each zone. Basically, on a set schedule, the slave server checks in with the master server to see if a change has been made. To work around this, you can manually cause the slave to update. Select the slave zone in the Manager window in QuickDNS Manager 4.x, open the contextual menu, and select Reload. ____________________________________________________________________ Chris Buxton Men & Mice Customer Support Specialist Making DNS Easy At 2:26 PM -0800 3/26/04, Patrick Windmiller wrote: >I have a primary server running on QDNS 3.5.3 on OS 9 and a secondary server >running QDNS 4.6.x on 10.3.x Server.
