slave on per-zone basis only?

Yes, you need a "zone" entry for each domain.  This could be scripted.

   $ grep '^zone ' named.conf | cut -d\" -f2 

...run on the master will return a list of zones served by the master.  Feed this to another script to generate the zone entries for the slave(s) and append that to your basic config.

Hello,

I have a general question about the configuration of slave nameservers.
Does a slave have to have an entry for every zone that a master serves?
Such as:

zone "foobar.com" {
                        type slave;
                        file "db.foobar.com";
                        masters {  192.168.1.235;  };
};

Does an entry such as this need to added for *every* domain that this server
is a slave for?  Or is there a global command that will tell the server to
slave for every domain a specific master serves?
