Hi all,

I have already posted this article to comp.unix.questions but haven't
got good response.
And strangely, I can't post any articles to comp.protocols.dns.bind
using our 
ISP's news server.
I usually use Linux and thought some Linux guru might know about this.

I am using BIND 4.9.5 on BSDI and tried to prevent unauthorized zone
transfer.
So I put "xfrnets 10.0.0.0" in named.boot and restarted named.
For testing, I used named-xfer on other host whose address is not
10.0.0.xx specifying the DNS server which runs the named as a source. 
However, the named did not reject the request and named-xfer obtained
zone information. So xfrnets statement does not seem to work.

I do not use any secure_zone records at the moment

Does anyone know why it does not work?
Have I done something wrong?


Many thanks in advance.

Terry
