A few things can be wrong.
1) Whenever you update a zone at the Primary, make sure you increase
the serial number.
2) Slave may not be allowed to transfer a zone from the master. (Make sure
you've got the slave's IP in the allow-transfer and allow-query acl)
3) Your slave/master may be hacked, since you're running bind8.2.2. Please
upgrade yesterday.
4) Slave may not be able to reach master, due to network problems
(firewall and stuff).
5) Slave could be asking the wrong IP (see named.conf zone config of
slave).
Tips:
Check all of the above. Do explicitly number 3. Next time please provide
logs.
