If I understand correctly, your secondary server is getting your domain
zone file, but not your reverse zone file.

You need to configure it to get both. On your secondary server, in the
Secondary Domains file, add another line. It should be nearly identical to
the first. The only difference is the first column. Replace your domain
name with the reverse-ip name of your subnet. In other words:

If you have the Class C network 208.14.175.x, your reverse zone name is:

175.14.208.in-addr.arpa.

If this isn't clear, or if I've misunderstood your question, please ask again.
