In BIND, no. There are some solutions discussed (check the archives) around setting up special zones with the meta data required for the slaves to create their own slaves, I've even whipped up a POC, but I've not found a ready-made tool yet.
Your best bet is to script something up. We have a standard format for our files, so all I do is parse the named.conf from my master, change "master" to "slave" and add the "masters" line. I then have a script that pushes the new file out to the slaves and "rndc reconfigs" them. This works best if you use includes for your zone configuration, keeping it out of named.conf. It's pretty trivial for a lab quality deployment, but for production, I'd look around or develop something a little more robust.

Is this correct? Is there a way to make the slave server automatically get and update any new domains that are added to the master server? Please advise.
