Dear all,
After I change the setting as below, the Secondary DNS Server seem like
doesn't work as secondary. Because after I add the new server IP on "zone
name" and "zone IP" files in Primary DNS Server for 3 hours, the Secondary
DNS Server is haven't update the record.
Can anyone show / help me to solve this problem ?
Thanks and regards,
Kevin Chan
