Hi K,

Just set up server B as an ordinary slave for domainA.com and server A
as a slave for domainB.com:

	// on server A
	zone "domainb.com" {
		type slave;
		masters { ip.of.server.b; };
		file "domainb.com.db";
	};

	// on server B
	zone "domaina.com" {
		type slave;
		masters { ip.of.server.a; };
		file "domaina.com.db";
	};
