The easiest way to do this is to setup your SOA record with a low 
value in the REFRESH field. You can try for example, a REFRESH value 
of 10 minutes, which will force the secondary to check your zone for 
updates automatically at that interval.

When you think your zone is stable and should'nt need changes with 
high frequency, you can change your REFRESH to a normal value (i.e. 1 
hour).
