Slave DNS??

[gurpz]

I am having problems configuring a Slave Suse Linux 10.1 DNS Server. I have a primary server working fine, running windows 2003. It has been configured to allow updates to the slave server, when I run named I get loads of tmp files in directory /var/lib/named/slave. In the error logs I can see permission denied errors. I used the following tutorial to set up my slave server: http://www.howtoforge.com/traditional_dns_howto_p8.

As far as I know I need to configure named.conf & the transfer of my zones should happen automatically. Any help as why this does not happen would be appreciated.

What's in your named.conf, and what are the exact error messages?

Thanks for replying, I found a solution for this problem. Apparently with suse 10.1 you have to edit named file in /etc/sysconfig, you change the value for Named_Run_Chroot="yes".
