No, there's no way to do that. The only way a slave knows what domains
it's a slave for is by looking in its named.conf file. There's no way to
configure "be a slave for all zones that <other machine> is master for".
There isn't even a way to find out what zones a machine is master or slave
for, other than by looking at its named.conf file or dumping its memory.

Use a change management system like RCS, SCCS, or CVS.
