SOA issue

[Lightner, Jeff]

Also make sure you’ve incremented the serial number in the zone file by at least 1.

Can anyone tell help me figure out why this SOA is not changing no matter what I do. The zone was edited and has a new SOA but no matter what I do bind doesn’t reload the zone with the new SOA. I tried rndc freeze/unfreeze and still nothing. Short of reloading bind what else can I do.

TIA, Paul

OK

Your zone only has an SOA record. A zone without NS records will not load.

If that's not really the issue, because you've edited the output above, a couple of hints:

- rndc reload <zone> is unnecessary if rndc freeze <zone> executes correctly. A dynamic zone (one that you would freeze and thaw) cannot be reloaded. Thawing the zone effectively reloads it.

- Do not edit a dynamic zone's zone file without first freezing it. Otherwise, when you freeze it, the data in memory will be written to disk, overwriting your changes.

- Are you sure you're editing the right file?
