DDNS Server Administrator Help
Use the Notify Servers tab of the Secondary
Domain Notebook to specify the notify servers for this secondary name
server. The default notify set will be obtained when the master server is
contacted and includes all the secondary servers listed in the domain data
received from the master server.
The Notify Servers tab has these fields and check boxes:
- Notify the domain name servers listed below when the domain database
serial number is updated.
- When checked, indicates that you want this name server to notify the
specified name servers whenever the serial number changes (indicating that the
domain data has changed). This option facilitates the updating of the
secondary name servers and enables them to remain more current.

add to the notify set. After typing the address, click Add.
