Zone tranfers fails

[Dawn Connelly]

can you telnet on port 53 between the boxes? Most of the time when I have
seen a connection reset, it's a firewall in the middle. Other possibility is
that the source IP is getting NAT'd to a different IP address by the time it
hits the master server. Run a tcpdump or snoop or whatever for your platform
to see if the traffic is actually making it from one box to the other in the
way that you expect. At least, that is where I would start. If you don't see
any traffic, look at what devices would be blocking or changing it.
What do the logs on the master server say? Can you send a scrubbed
named.conf so we can make sure that the zone transfers are set up correctly?
