“Zone transfer for secondary zone refused by master server”
Whenever a red X appears on a secondary Windows DNS zone within the DNS management console verify that the primary server is configured to allow zone transfers from the secondary:
- On the primary DNS server, click Start, click All Programs, click Administrative Tools, and then click DNS.
- Expand Forward Lookup Zones or Reverse Lookup Zones, whichever one applies.
- Right-click the zone, click Properties, and then click the Zone Transfers tab.
- Make sure that the Allow zone transfers option is selected.
