secondary dns acting up

[Mark.Andrews at nominum.com]

	If you have a old enough version this could be the problem.

 433.   [bug]           req_notify required the slave zone to have been loaded.
                        this may not be the case when a zone has expired or
                        is being established over a dial on demand link.
