Windows 2000 Server, DNS, Primary, secondary configuration.

I delete a Host record from DNSPrimary.
I go to the secondary, select "Transfer from Master".

I still see the deleted record listed on the secondary server. is there any
way to expedite this deletion process on the secondary server ?

Darn. I see that the secondary DNS server displays event 6523, DNS error.
It says that zone transfer failed from master...

Are zone transfers set to allow? I've found simply deleting the secondary
zone and recreating it works nicely. Now if it doesn't transfer, we'll need
to look at if any ports are being blocked.
