My mistake, I should have included that information with my first
message.
I have a box running Slackware 9.1. NSD is set up as a secondary server
and listens on eth0 (wan). Bind-9 is set up for recursive-only and
listens on eth1 and lo (lan). All of that is working flawlessly, thanks
in part to the great people on this list. 8^)
So I want to have my secondary server transfer from the primary, (which
I also control) that is a couple hundred miles away. The docs say that
I need named-xfer, which stopped being released with bind-8 I believe.
I downloaded the source for bind 8.4.4 which includes named-xfer. I got
the main source, the docs, and the contrib packages because I wasn't
sure what I'd need. I untarred the source package and looked through
everything that was extracted. The most obvious choice was the makefile
/src/bin/named-xfer, so I tried to use that. I couldn't find any real
documentation so I tried the most obvious things. Trying ./configure
returns No such file or directory. Make returns the following block. I
don't understand all the references to a directory called freebsd. I
didn't see that the source was specific to any *nix, there was only one
choice.

Once again, thank you for your time

I use Debian, and also had some problems with bind8. Do bind8 and
