error with zone file & adding TXT record

[Brent]

Peter,
Thank you for your reply. My mistake the actual entry doesn't contain an A
record..here is actually what is there for an entry

                IN TXT  "v=spf1 mx ptr include:gmpexpress.net ~all"
                IN TXT  "v=spf1 a -all"


this works fine on one of the DNS servers however the one im using to test
with gives the following error after "rndc reload"


Oct 12 15:03:30 abbot named[12225]: [ID 873579 local5.error] Oct 12
15:03:30.291 general: error: zone gmpexpress.net/IN: loading master file
fwd/gmpexpress.net: unknown class/type


any thoughts ?
