CentOS - May 2011 - BIND9 - automatic zone definition replication to slave

Hello,

I have simple question - is there a way to automatically replicate zone
definition (not zone itself - this is easy) to slave server using BIND9? Is
it BIND built-in or are there prebuilt scripts? Or I have to write that
script on my own (started by Cron, transfer file with zone names, create
conf file and finallly restart BIND?)?

Thank you in advance

Here, I have made a php front-end to manage dns zones and entries.

So for the slaves, it's only a little php script that connects to the same
database and fetches the zone names to build the conf file...

 Check out incron from rpmforge. Together with rsync and possibly a bit of
 custom scripting it should be perfect.

 I would not rsync config files directly into place, but use a staging area,
 watched by incron on the other end, so that a custom script could do some
 integrity checking before applying the update.
