Check your logging:

xfer.log:20-Jan-2009 20:06:24.677 xfer-out: info: client
149.20.XX.XX#60073: transfer of '154.XX.XX.in-addr.arpa/IN': AXFR-style
IXFR started: TSIG KEYNAME-HERE

You can also use the -y option on dig to force your query/transfer from
the command line to use TSIG:

dig @SERVER -y KEYNAME-HERE:KEYING-MATERIAL ZONE-NAME axfr

(and then check your logs)  :)
