[Opendnssec-user] serial number decreased in signed zone in 1.4.0a2

[Paul Wouters]

Hi,

Yesterday I updated a zone (colah.ca) and bumped the serial and issued
a sign command (not using XFR adapters). None of my secondaries picked
it up a day later. I noticed the signed zone serial went from 2012011568
to 2012011517. This is a zone that has not seen any change in probably a
year. The git commit confirms I upgraded the serial:

--- a/nsd/colah.ca
+++ b/nsd/colah.ca
@@ -1,5 +1,5 @@

+                                       2012072101 ; serial
                                         18000      ; refresh (5 hours)


There seems to be a bug in the incrementing serial routines for signed
zones.

Regards,

Paul
