As said before, FIX YOUR SERIAL NUMBERS! You had a serial number of 200204something before, now you have 200203something. This WILL NOT WORK. Do you understand that number is NOT parsed as a date? Updated zone files must have HIGHER numbers. If you screwed the zone up originally by trying to use a Euro date such as 2002270201, you can't just randomly start using lower numbers. I don't remember how to fix numbering, I think it involves using a higher legitimate number with a very short expiration period, letting it expire, and restarting with a new lower one. But I'm not sure, you need to find a BIND resource somewhere. You may possibly have other problems with the zone file, but it WILL NOT WORK until you fix the screwed-up serialization. Stop posting until you fix that. For that matter, the whole issue is one for a BIND list, not FreeBSD.
