CentOS - Sep 2008 - Zone transfers not working for subdomain

I have a domain, let's call it "example.com".  I am able to do
zone
transfers on the local host as follows:

dig example.com AXFR @localhost

This command outputs all of the contents of the zone as expected.  I
am unable to do zone transfers on my subdomain though:

dig subdomain.example.com AXFR @localhost

; <<>> DiG 9.2.1 <<>> subdomain.example.com AXFR
@localhost
;; global options:  printcmd
; Transfer failed.

Below are my config files, truncated and with host names changed to
protect the innocent:

**** From /var/named/zones.conf ***
****************************************************
zone "example.com" {
        type master;
        file "master/example.com";
};

        type master;
        file "master/subdomain.example.com";
};

What am I missing here?

Ok, I was able to sort this one out on my own.  I was missing some
periods on my NS records, apparently this was somehow preventing the
transfers.  All is good.
