Thanks to everyone for the reply.  Fortunately, after hacking away at it all
night, I finally decided to check the /var/log/messages and found that I had
typed prinary instead of primary in the named.boot for the forward zone I
was asking about.  Sorry for the trouble everyone, I'll make sure to exhaust
all my options before posting next time.
