>(you may have to link /etc/namedb/named.conf -> /etc/named.conf)

Before you do a production machine, make sure you don't have names that
are both CNAMEs and MX records.  It will now refuse the domain file and
that domain could be down until you figure it out.  

I ran 8.2.2P5 against the same zone files on a seperate machine first.  I
had a lot of fixing to do.  The previous admin was MX happy and they had
never turned up as a problem before.
