Better to ignore. named would also be behaving as the DNS Proxy in the router. If you have SSH access, though, you should be able to suppress the warnings or correct the problem.

I just got FIOS a week ago, and I'm seeing the same thing in the Quantum's Firewall Log, with three entries each time:

Apr 19 01:04:51 2018 named[1427] err<139> zone fios-router.home/IN/internal-clients: zone serial (2008122601) unchanged. zone may fail to transfer to slaves.

Apr 19 01:04:51 2018 named[1427] err<139> zone 1.168.192.in-addr.arpa/IN/internal-clients: zone serial (2008122601) unchanged. zone may fail to transfer to slaves.

Apr 19 01:04:51 2018 named[1427] err<139> zone FIOS_Quantum_Gateway/IN/internal-clients: zone serial (2008122601) unchanged. zone may fail to transfer to slaves.

Here's a possibility - I run the app Simple DNSCrypt, which installed the process and service dnscrypt-proxy. This encrypts DNS requests and/or protects them from MITM attacks. I understand it uses 127.0.0.1 as a DNS proxy.

Do you think there's any connection?

Thanks.

Just FYI that this continues to happen:

Apr 21 10:44:50 2018 named[1426] err<139> zone fios-router.home/IN/internal-clients: zone serial (2008122601) unchanged. zone may fail to transfer to slaves.

Apr 21 10:44:50 2018 named[1426] err<139> zone FIOS_Quantum_Gateway/IN/internal-clients: zone serial (2008122601) unchanged. zone may fail to transfer to slaves.

Apr 21 10:44:50 2018 named[1426] err<139> zone 1.168.192.in-addr.arpa/IN/internal-clients: zone serial (2008122601) unchanged. zone may fail to transfer to slaves. 

Any thoughts?
