Please explain what you mean by "slave format". Do you mean binary (raw)
format, or just formatted differently as a text file? (Different versions of
BIND behave differently.)
Please keep in mind that a zone transfer between DNS servers is not a file
transfer. The master does not send a file to the slaves. It sends DNS records,
in binary (DNS protocol) format.
