Hello,

     I was doing some tests with DNSSEC in that zone. I used one day of
signature lifetime, now it is expired. All this happen when I was trying to
regenerate the signature.

     In fact, the problem is that my master did not see the serial change.
If I run dig using the master I still got the old serial number,even after
restart bind. Should I have to disable DNSSEC?

Regards,
