DNS1 on Win2k server and DNS2 on BIND: replication is not working

	Fix your semantic errors in the named.conf below.  named-checkconf
	is your friend.

	Do you really want named writing to "/etc"?

	You don't need to tell the master that you have a new copy
	of the zone.

	Slave zones don't have allow-update.  BIND 9 won't load with
	directive.  BIND 8 ignores this directive.

	The default transfer values should be fine.
