Slave DNS Manager not creating DNS zone in slave server

JebinL

New Pleskian
Hi,

I have setup Slave DNS using plesk 12. But it is not creating the zone in slave server. I could see log in /var/log/messages of slave server. But DNS zone is not creating. I have followed the KB "http://download1.parallels.com/Ples...extensions-guide/index.htm?fileName=73349.htm" for setup.

================
Nov 4 13:31:25 li456-187 named[16905]: received control channel command 'addzone testnith.com { type slave; file "testnith.com"; masters { 108.161.131.59; }; };'
Nov 4 13:31:25 li456-187 named[16905]: received control channel command 'refresh testnith.com'
Nov 4 13:31:25 li456-187 named[16905]: received control channel command 'addzone testnith.com { type slave; file "testnith.com"; masters { 108.161.131.59; }; };'
================
 
On your slave server, change ownership of the /var/named directory (and all other subdirs/files) to the user 'named'. That's the missing step that makes everything work.
