    Did you look at the logs on the master?  It could be running out of
memory.
You would need to increase the page/swap file on the master and try again.

If you still get the same result, try 8.2.3 on NT. If you use dig with
axfr do all
the records transfer?  Did you try running named-xfer yourself from the
command line?
