Lame servers are logged when a zone has an NS record pointing at a nameserver which is not authoritative for the zone.
In this case, there are no NS records pointing to the nameservers which carry the slave zones. Why would lame server warnings result?
If you're downstream of a lame server, you're likley to get the warning.
I can't think of a scenario where this would be true. If this is something you have seen, can you describe the setup in more detail? What exactly do you mean by "downstream of a lame server"? Lame delegations result when a zone contains an NS record to a nameserver which, when queried, turns out not to be authoritative. In this case there are _no_ NS records pointing at the nameserver which is performing the zone transfer. If there were, there is still a good chance that no lame delegation warnings would result, since the nameserver _would_ have authoritative data.
