DNS and firewall

Hello all

Question: It seems that DNS zone transfers are done via port 53 as well
as resolutions. Is this true?

If this is true then I must rely on the BIND mechanisms for 'securing'
zone transfers to specifically allowed systems, and cannot get fancy
with the firewall configurations.

Comments?

Thanks
Bob
