Not sure why but my Raq4 is not propagating anything to a brand new Raq4 i started.

I set a secondary service to the second server but nothing.

Correct me if i am wrong but when It accually gets an update it put sec.domainnames.com in the /etc/named/ folder ?

Any help would be great.

In the control Panel, you should at least have (maybe you have the mail server there, too)
DNS Settings for domainnames.com

Start of Authority (SOA) Configuration
domainnames.com ip1.ip2.ip3.ip4
www.domainnames.com ip1.ip2.ip3.ip4
sec.domainnames.com ip1.ip2.ip3.ip4 and click on the 'Save Changes To DNS Server' button to restart the named server and, of course, have the extra virtual site sec.domainnames.com in the Site Managment list (besides the www.domainnames.com site).

Best regards

That is not correct. You do not have to create extra sites called "sec.domainname.com".

What you have to do is to set up the domain as usual in DNS on the primary server.

Then on the secondary server, you would need to set up a Secondary Service record for the domain pointing to the primary server.

So you put the secondary service record on the wrong server... if you move it to the other server, everything should work fine!
