Retry Limit

One of our slave servers is showing multiple errors like the following:

zone domain1.com/IN: refresh: retry limit for master 66.123.118.40#53 
exceeded: 1 Time(s)
zone domain2.com/IN: refresh: retry limit for master 66.123.118.40#53 
exceeded: 1 Time(s)

Apparently it's a transient problem because transfers of updated zones 
appear to be happening successfully.  Is this 'retry limit' a server 
config setting on either the master or on the slave and can (should) it be 
increased?  All servers are running BIND 9.2.3.
