Morning all, I managed to resolve some initial issues with named on both a primary and 2ndary nameserver and now both start/stop as they should but the master / slave is not getting working and there are no errors in either log.

A dig on the primary (dig @ns1 domain.com) shows;
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;domain.com. IN A

;; ANSWER SECTION:
domain.com. 86400 IN A 1.1.1.1

A dig on the 2ndary shows;

;; QUESTION SECTION:
;domain.com. IN A

the slave file is 0 bytes, and have tried to manually refresh with the following;
rndc reload domain.com and get;
zone refresh queued

Nothing at all regarding named shows up in the messages file, so any suggestions / advice is appreciated.
