Try providing more details and we'll try to help. My first suggestion would be that there is probably an error in the zone file(s) for the domains you're having problems with. Try upping the serial number on one of those zones, and doing 'kill -1 <named's pid here> ; tail -f /var/log/named.log'. This should show you where the error is. If you don't see the error doing it that way, try tail'ing the log in one window and -hup'ing in another.
