Hi,

Thanks for your question.

Microsoft Windows software does not support TSIG via hmac-md5, rather Microsoft has implemented a different mechanism for authenticating servers using GSS-TSIG.  For this reason, it is not possible to configure a Windows Server running the Microsoft DNS service to perform zone transfers from a server running BIND DNS configured as a master authoritative server with TSIG protection on the allow-transfer directive.
