Installing A Bind9 Master/Slave DNS System

[eff3]

Hello together,

I'm ashamed to place this question to such an really good tutorial but there is a big Problem in my configuration and I'm going to be crazy soon.

I've found this tutorial in the net and doing this on 2 different machines and it all WORKS fine at the first go. The next step was to reinstall the first machine (NS1) because accidently the gnome gui was installed with an on a running system should be no graphical interface in my opinion.

As the system was reinstalled I worked out the tutorial again and suddenly there appears a failure message in the syslog

Now I rechecked the configuration twice, changing the keys and reinstalled the system again but there is this still this annoying message :confused:

I really hope you have some ideas to solve that :(
