Re: Using Master as Slave at the same time

Thank you for the quick reply!

The zone I try to add as new master does not exist on neither of the
servers.
No duplicates exists.

If I add his nameservers in the name-server tab (as the ones that are ok to
send notify and transfer to) everything works, but this isn't the solution I
am looking for.
I don't want his nameservers to show up on nslookup/dig.

Would it help if I show you some zone-files? Which one do you want?

Kind Regards,
Kim Jensen
