got secondry dns set up, how 2 primary?

[Kevin Darcy]

I'm not sure I understand the question. The "Refresh" field in the SOA record
of the zone controls how often slaves check the master for changes. If yours
is set to 15 minutes (900 seconds), then it's understandable why you're
getting queried that often. But an SOA query every 15 minutes is no big deal.
If your slaves are doing a zone transfer every 15 minutes, then that's a cause
for concern. Is the zone changing that frequently? How current do your slaves
need to be? Maybe you could tune your Refresh setting, or, if the zone is
really changing that frequently, maybe you should consider breaking out some
subzones for the more volatile data so that the zone transfers are smaller.
