The Master will write the zone files to the Slave.
The Slave needs a named.conf gile, telling it which zones to
accept transfer for and who the Master is.

A mini named.conf file for a slave.
options {
        directory "/etc/named";
};
zone "." { type hint; file "db.cache"; };
zone "domain.com" { type slave; file "db.domain.com"; masters {
ip.add.re.ss; }; };
