	Try "named-checkzone zonename /var/named/master/db.myzone".
	You can only use the one arguement form when both the zone name
	and the file name are the *same*.  You said to load zone
	"/var/named/master/db.myzone" from "/var/named/master/db.myzone".
	[Both arguements will be manditory in future.]

	/* */ is not a comment in a master file.

	There were not blank lines between the error messages originally.

	White space or lack thereof is significant at the start of a record.
