I have a problem with DNS servers. My master dns server runs on Microsoft DNS server and now I want to start slave DNS server on Linux Bind9. The problems is that master MS DNS server can't validate slave DNS server (bind9) and can't resolve FQDN. Maybe, I missed something... firewall, dns configuration and network looks like ok.

And the second question is: How I can make full transfer of dns zones to slave dns server? from MS DNS to BIND9

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Bryan

On your Windows DNS server, select the properties of the domain name and on the Zone Transfers tab, check the Allow Zone Transfers box.

Thanks for Your answer. I have checked the "Allow Zone Transfers" and choose "Only to servers listed in the Name Servers tab" On the Name Servers tab there are 4 name servers, the new slave name server also included in that list, but problems still alive. Moreover, on same menu, on Name Server tab when I choose my new name server, the MS DNS server can't validate it, it shows me "A timeout occurred during validation." Maybe, something wrong with Linux dns? Thank You. – Bryan Dec 29 '10 at 16:35
Make sure port 53/udp and 53/tcp is open between the Windows box and the Linux box. – ablackhat Dec 29 '10 at 22:51
