Re: TSIG last question: msg#00253

Subject: Re: TSIG last question
Let me ask a follow-on question. I have set up a primary & a slave in two 
different time zones, using the format shown by Mark. Both machines are 
running local time, so the hours are different. Would this be the cause of 
my getting REFUSED on all transfer attempts between these two machines? I 
have other slaves on the same ethernet  as the master, and they work fine. 
Do I need to set both machines to GMT?
