Ports used during Zone transfers (9.0.1)

I have gotten 9.0.1 master and slave talking to one another as long as I 
don't have my standard access-list stuff in my router up. The minute I 
reinstate my filters, the two systems stop talking to one another. Here are 
the standard rules I have been using (legacy for 8.x bind):

! DNS queries
access-list 111 permit udp any any eq domain
access-list 111 permit tcp 64.210.184.0 0.0.0.255 208.45.103.18 0.0.0.0 eq 
domain

where the 64.210.184.0 network is where the master server lives. The slave 
lives in the 63.146.119.0 network. So, I added the following rule to allow 
the zone data to flow:

access-list 111 permit tcp 64.210.184.0 0.0.0.255 63.146.119.0 0.0.0.255 eq 
domain

but no go. And, since 9.0.1 doesn't really use named-xfer (at least, 
according to the docs it doesn't), I'm not entirely sure what is going on 
when a zone is transferred from the master to the slave.

Does anyone have any information on what ports are used? I've tried 
snooping, but living behind a switch is making that problematic :(

Thanks.
