Please see these urls for some ideas.  Basically, you have ONE zone
file with multiple entries to that zone file in named.conf.  Each entry
has a different name but points to the same zone file.

Zone file: http://www.bleedingsnort.com/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/blockeddomain.hosts?root=DNS-BH&rev=1.1.1.1&view=markup
named.conf: http://www.bleedingsnort.com/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/spywaredomains.zones?root=DNS-BH&rev=1.30&view=markup

Hope that helps.

I am perfectly capable of learning from my mistakes.  I will surely
learn a great deal today.
