Issue / Error:
Failure of secondary DNS to query/download updates from master DNS server.
Server error message icludes:
... transfer of 'domain.name.com/IN': send: connection reset

Solution:
auth-nxdomain yes ;
allow-notify { 192.168.100.1; };
transfer-format one-answer ;


auth-nxdomain yes - tells this bind 9.22 server that is is the master
allow-notify - obviously shows the ip address of the secondary dns server allowed to query
transfer-format - tells BIND to only send one packet at one time rather than a bunch of changes at once.
