Rex, looks like you have some bad names in your zone files. I mainly
have run into this when I try to float names that have illegal
characters in them. Depends on the version of bind your running too,
because the validation rules have changed from version to version.
I couldn't change my host names that contain underscores "_", so I added
this config which you might want to consider:
options {
check-names master ignore;
};
