The correct syntax is:

$TTL 21600 ; Default TTL 6 hours
230.111.64.in-addr.arpa IN SOA dns.navipath.net. hostmaster.navipath.net.(
                                2001071000      ; Serial Number
                                21600   ; Refresh after 6 hours
                                3600    ; Retry after 1 hour
                                1728000 ; Expire zone after 20 days
                                3600 )  ; Negative caching TTL 1 hour

Substitute the timer values you want.
