Preventing the nslookup "ls" command

On your slave zone statements add the line:

allow-transfer { none; };

On your master add the line:

allow-transfer { 198.88.0.19; 192.46.38.15; };

You would substitute the IP addresses above for your slave IP 
addresses so they could do transfers.

Cheers, Bill Webb
