I have just moved from Lenny to Squeeze. I did it the cowards way by
shifting from one VPS to another, taking up Bitfolk's 2 weeks offer. It all
went extremely well except for one problem that I have just solved after
hours searching logs, uninstalling and reinstalling etc. Thought I ought to
post it here in case anyone else hits the same problem. (When I have done
my other VPS I'll add this to the Wiki)
I found that I could not get rndc to work. This led to very intermittent
failure to allow transfers to slave servers. I had all the correct
permissions and keys and everything in the right place. I had iptables set
up to allow input on lo and from 127.0.0.1. In the end, I had to set up an
explicit rule in iptables to allow input from 127.0.0.1 to 127.0.0.1 port
953. Never saw this on lenny nor on an "offsite" squeeze machine. I can't
understand why this time it needed that one explicit rule. Anyway, all's
well that ends well and it is now all working perfectly
