I don't think that the main DNS server was behaving sensibly in terms of
recursive searches.
I've now had the main DNS servers also act as slaves, and it's all working.

and while you haven't fixed the problem which you didn't even describe
properly, you have worked aropund it.
It may return and hit you back, again, even harder.

maybe you should describe it more deeply.
My understanding (which may have been presented in a confused manner in
earlier emails)
Master (hosts zone file) Slave (transfers from master)

slave hosts the zone too.

Delegation - one dns server pointing at the NS for the next subdomain down.

no, delegation is not dns server pointing. It's the zone having NS records
for subzone.

I can guess you failed to do this, so while your master knows where the
subzone is, slave does not.

I'm not completely following what you're doing.  But your wording causes
me to pause, make a comment, and ask for clarification.

Comment:  slave (and master) is not the same thing as delegation.

Question:  Is dns.example.org delegating sub.example.org to
myserver.example.org?  Or is myserver.example.org a slave for some zone
(which I can't clearly extract from your message)?
