zone "foobar" {
  type master;
  file "zones/db.foobar";
}

  vs:

zone "foobar" {
  type slave;
  file "secondary/db.foobar";
  masters {
    123.45.67.89;      // IP of primary.
  };
};


Don't worry apart creating the zone file of the slave... it will
automatically do a zone-transfer from the primary and keep its self
updated by using the values from the SOA.
