I had changed some IP addresses and missed an
entry in the named.conf file.

Pretty stupid mistake huh.

   For a literal explanation of the errors, see
   http://www.acmebw.com/askmrdns/bind-messages.htm and search for "bad
   referral" and "unrelated".
   
   Because of the proximity of the two sets of errors in the log file, it looks
   like your name server was querying a name server at 10.128.128.200 that it
   thought should be authoritative for the net zone; however, this name server
   was not authoritative for net and instead returned a referral to the root
   zone.  Something must have been strange about that referral, since the A
   records in its additional section were ignored.
   
   The bigger question is why your name server was querying a net name server
   at 10.128.128.200.  Can you tell us a little more about your setup?
