The syslog entries above are from the bind server.  The windows server
primary zone is AD integrated.  When the bind server requests a transfer
the windows server log says it completed successfully.  Packet capture
shows DNS information flowing to the secondary after the transfer request. 
The /etc/tmp open:permission denied message happens every time the transfer
is initiated.

How do I fix the permission denied problem and what is the /etc/tmp file
open step  doing?
