Finally I've managed to successfully configure BIND 9 as a slave to a myDNS server and the AXFR transfers seem to be working fine. This strikes me as being quite a nice balance of ease of use and reliability in case myDNS fails on me. Ok I appreciate it doesn't get around security concerns but hey ho.

As far as as security, why have myDNS world-reachable at all? You can have bind feed off of myDNS without having anyone on the outside ever talk to the myDNS backend. Chris
