On the slave:

zone "linkweb.dk"{
        type slave;
        file "secondary/linkweb_2";
        masters{212.130.193.2; };
};

SOA:

linkweb.dk
        origin = ns.linkweb.dk
        mail addr = thomas.linkweb.dk
        serial = 2000091902
        refresh = 28800 (8H)
        retry   = 14400 (4H)
        expire  = 3600000 (5w6d16h)
        minimum ttl = 864000 (1w3d)
linkweb.dk      nameserver = ns.linkweb.dk
linkweb.dk      nameserver = ns2.linkweb.dk
ns.linkweb.dk   internet address = 212.130.193.2
ns2.linkweb.dk  internet address = 212.130.193.3

If i have more than one zone in /etc/named.conf on the master, do i need to
speciafy them as slaves also on the slave ?. until now it has worked fine
with the current setup....
