It sounds like the the slave is not getting notifies when the master is
updated. I'd check the NS records first to make sure both master and
slave are listed. Is this server providing external DNS behind a NAT?
It could be that you are trying to to zone transfers over the external
IP to 2 servers on the same external firewall. in this case, you can add
the also-notify { internal ip of slave}; stanza to the named.conf to
force it to notify the slave on updates.
