Forward zone files not working on Bind 9.3.6-P1 for Solaris and OpenSolaris??

If you're loading a zone as "sgd.test", then an owner name of ns-m.test 
doesn't belong in it, and BIND is correct to reject it.

Either change that name to something under sgd.test, or set up a 
separate zone for ns-m.test or anything above that in the hierarchy 
(i.e. "test" or root).

I don't know why this would have worked in your old environment, but 
then again I don't know what version "BIND 9 from Blastwave" is, or what 
you mean by "skeleton of the files".
