Upgrade immediately to BIND 8.2.5.  I bunch of NT-specific bugs were fixed
in that release.

Also read Len Conrad's reply. You appear to have a bunch of other errors in
your zone files. You should fix those errors and then try again.  If you still
have problems, follow up in this newgroup/mailing list with a specific example
of a problem that you are seeing.  Also look in the log files that were created
for errors as well as the application event log.
