You need to be more specific, since there's no such thing as a "AFXR" or
even an "AXFR" record. But in the meantime I'll take a wild guess that
maybe your friend needs to change his "allow-xfer" statement so that the
slaves of the zone can do zone transfers and (if desired) clients can
list the zone contents. Do I get a prize?
