Re: Ports for Zone Transfers?

Len, you have the master/slave relationship backward, if I'm not
mistaken. The slave server initiates the connection from an arbitrary
port to port 53/TCP (of course, the UDP port is required for the SOA
check). So it would be:

allow from DNS_slave any port to DNS_master port 53 udp/tcp

In terms of Panther's firewall, open port 53 on the master. The Mac
OS X built-in firewall GUI doesn't offer filtering of source ports,
nor of outgoing traffic.
