	The current BIND 9.1.x is BIND 9.1.3, I recommend upgrading.

	Well there is no need to censor the signature.  TSIG is designed
	to limit exposure of replay attacks to minutes.  In otherwords
	seeing the signature doesn't disclose the secret.

	NOTZONE indicates that the server believes that one of the updates
	didn't belong to the zone in question.  The contents of 
	/etc/ppp/nsupd.cfg would be interesting to see.
