in your BIND configuration file: (/etc/named.conf)

zone "yourdomain.com" {
type slave;
file "[name of zone file on the master goes here, usually I call it same as the zone, that is, yourdomain.com]";
masters { [ip address of master server ]; };
};

Restart BIND and it should transfer all of the zone files from the primary server. Also make sure that you add a loopback zone for the localhost, otherwise nslookup will complain.
