converting 4.9.4-P1 to 8.2.2-P5

We have a perfectly good BIND 4.9.4-P1 running on a solaris machine.
But to keep up with the times, I built and installed BIND 8.2.2-P5
on a newer Solaris box. I then ran the conversion utility and everything
seems to work for the most part altho it complains about things that
the 4.9 version is quite happy with
eg a cname followed by the same
cname pointing to a RR seems to get it rather pissed off.
Also, running in debug I get things like
Zone "acme.com" (file named.acme): No default TTL set, using SOA
minimum instead
The FAQ says something about putting a directive $TTL 1234567
Where specifically does that do (named.conf, named.acme?)
Also, named.acme: WARNING SOA expire value is less than 7 days
(432000)
I realize these are just warnings but I'd like to clean as much up as I
can. Are there other gotchas in the conversion? We're primary for
several other zones.
Thanks
