Hmm.  This sounds like a Webmin RPC error rather than a BIND
AXFR-related error;  as I noted before, a BIND server is either a master
or a slave for any given zone - it can't be both, and the errors you
showed from BIND indicate to me that one machine *is* trying to be both
master and slave for a zone.  Without seeing the named.conf and zone
files, I can't tell you anything more useful about what BIND is doing.

You *can* have a pair of servers with one machine acting as master for
some zones, and the other acting as master for the rest, but that's not
very common and you need a tool like Webmin to keep track of what's
where.  <g>
