how do I force a zone transfer

[Andy Shellam (Mailing Lists)]

Because "loganutah.org" is a slave zone, it reads it's updates from the 
master.
You need to increment the zone serial and do 'rndc reload' on the zone's 
master server (10.1.15.53), which will send a notify to the slave (check 
your notify config on the master as well.)
