Should running a rndc freeze and thaw on the slave server also push the data

For some weird reason, running a rndc freeze and thaw on the slave runs
successfully, but it does not push the updates to the zone tables there, and
the .jnl files still exist after it.

This is unexpected behavior.

Not really. Freezing is only meaningful for zones of type master. If you
use "rndc freeze [zonename]" and the zone is of type slave, you will get
an error message "rndc: 'freeze' failed: not found" (by which it means,
not found among the zones of type master). "rndc freeze" without a zone name means "freeze all zones of type master", and so it is always
going to "run successfully", even if there aren't any. (I don't actually
much like syntax like this, when leaving out an argument has such a
wide-ranging effect that might not have been intended. "rndc freezeall",
say, would have been a better idea.)
