On closer examination that appears to be true. I thought I had installed 
the kernel (same version) with multipath support, but checksums disagree. 

On the other hand, it appears that my zone transfer problem was entirely 
due to my ipchains configuration. :-/ With that fixed everything works 
fine - except multipath of course. 

I can live with the current configuration (no multipath) as even without 
multipath turned on, as long as I have separate routing tables for the T1 
and DSL, I can route everything out of the DSL, and incoming customer 
connections on the T1 are routed right back out the T1 - perfect!

Well - almost. Ultimately I will have it set up such that I use 2 DSL for 
clients MASQ'ed behind the firewall, and the T1 for customers (external 
connections) only, with some kind of failover setup.

I will most definitely do that. With zone transfers working (and email, 
www, etc) now I can more comfortably research how to get the "ideal" 
setup.

Thanks,
