problem zone transfer

Windows Server 2003:

"Invalid response from master DNS server at 20.20.20.18 during attempted
zone transfer of zone dns.coop.  Check the DNS server at 20.20.20.18 and
ensure that it is authoritative for this zone.  This can be done by viewing
or updating the list of authoritative servers for the zone.  When using the
DNS console, select zone dns.coop Properties at server 20.20.20.18 and click
the Name Servers tab.  If needed, you can add or update this server in the
list there.  As an alternative solution, you could also modify settings in
the Zone Transfer tab to allow transfer of the zone to this and other DNS
servers."

This is with MaraDNS 1.3.14 (same thing happens on 1.3.07.08).

Windows pulling a zone transfer from Bind works (bind seems to use a
different format than MaraDNS - one that appears to coincide with the more
recent draft of the AXFR rfc).  In this case all the answers come back in
one DNS message (as opposed to one message per record [or one answer per DNS
response], like MaraDNS appears to do).

Thanks.
