Configuring Slave Zones
A sample configuration unit for a slave zone is shown here:
zone “41.10.15.IN-ADDR.ARPA” {
type slave;
file “zone.15.10.41”;
masters {
15.70.188.45;
};
};
The IP address of the server that is primary for that domain is specified
in the masters { } section of the configuration. There could be more than
one master for a given zone.
When the nameserver comes up, looking at this configuration, it makes
a connection with the nameserver running on 15.70.188.45 and does
zone transfer, if required. It also makes a local copy of this file.
