Done.

Turned off primary, changed IP on new server, rebooted.

Try to start named;

# /etc/init.d/named start
Starting named:
Error in named configuration:
zone 0.0.127.IN-ADDR.ARPA/IN: loaded serial 2006081501
zone xxx.com/IN: loading master file xxx.com: file not found
_default/xxx.com/IN: file not found
zone xx.in-addr.arpa/IN: loaded serial 2006081501

And, /var/log/messages;

Dec  5 11:53:33 ns1 named: zone xx.xx.xx.in-addr.arpa/IN: loaded serial

So here's the rub. This is the exact configuration from the running machine. 
So, what's changed and why does it think these files are problems?
