well, the bind book mentions the fact that if you dont put a "file" clause
in the slave zone that it wont write to the filesystem--it shoudl keep
the zone info cache in memory, so that could be another option for testing.
never tried that myself though.  (the downside being that if the primary
is unavailable when slave named boots up it would have no server
to load from)
