I didn't see that discussion, but I'm not sure how this could be caused
by Webmin. The actual transfer of records from a master to slave is done
completely by BIND, and in all the instanced I have seen it either
transfers all records, or none of them.

Check the log file (usually /var/log/messages) on the slave server when
a transfer is done, to see if any error is logged for the problem zone..
